Amendment 140 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9
(9) While instruments such as carbon pricing or targets on the carbon intensity of activity promote improvements in energy efficiency, they are not suited to bring about a significant shift towards renewable and low-carbon fuels in the short and medium term. A specific regulatory approach dedicated to the deployment of renewable and low-carbon marine fuels and substitute sources of energy, such as wind or electricity, is therefore necessary. The use of renewable and low-carbon marine fuels must however be made not only in a fuel and technology neutral approach but in the most cost-effective manner.

Amendment 165 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
(15) This Regulation should establish the methodology and the formula that should apply to calculate the yearly average greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on-board by a ship. This formula should be based on the fuel consumption reported by ships and consider the relevant emission factors of these fuels. The use of substitute sources of energy, such as wind or electricity, and any associated emissions, should also be reflected in the methodology.

Amendment 193 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 30
(30) The Commission should establish and ensure the functioning of an electronic database that registers the performance of each ship and, ensures its compliance with this Regulation, and records journey lengths and times for the purposes of monitoring for the risk and occurrence of carbon leakage. In order to facilitate reporting and limit administrative burden to companies, verifiers and other users, this electronic database should build upon the existing THETIS-MRV module and take into account the possibility to reuse information and data collected for the purpose of Regulation (EU) 2015/757.

Amendment 231 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 2 – paragraph 1 – point c
(c) a halfIf a thorough ex ante impact assessment regarding the risks of cargo diversion establishes that no major negative impacts on EU ports are expected, the Commission shall propose an amendment to this Regulation aiming at applying the Regulation to X percent (X%) of the energy used on voyages departing from or arriving to a port of call under the jurisdiction of a Member State, where the last or the next port of call is under the jurisdiction of a third country.

Amendment 236 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 2 – paragraph 1 – point c a (new)
(ca) Every year over a period of five years as from the entry into force of the FuelEU Maritime Regulation, the EU Commission shall evaluate the impact of FuelEU Maritime on EU ports exposed to competition from non-EU ports. A list of those ports shall be established, their emissions monitored and the evolution of the volumes tracked to determine whether variations are due to market conditions or can be attributed to carbon leakage. Should the cargo diversion be caused by the introduction of FuelEU Maritime, the EU Commission will compensate the loss of competitiveness through additional funding for clean port infrastructure and for the greening of superstructure such as new clean mobile service equipment.

Amendment 284 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 4 – paragraph 2 – subparagraph 1
[Asterix: The reference value, which calculation will be carried out at a later stage of the legislative procedure, corresponds to the fleet average greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on-board by ships in 2020 determined on the basis data monitored and reported in the framework of Regulation (EU) 2015/757 and using the methodology and default values laid down in Annex I to that Regulation.] The phase-in timescale, as laid down in Paragraph 2, shall be linked to the actual availability of alternative solutions to the use of current fuels and be revised, as appropriate, based on the report that the Commission shall present on the evolution of technologies and market for renewable and low fuels in maritime transport, pursuant to Article 28 of the present Regulation.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 5 – paragraph 1
1. From 1 January 2030, a ship at berth in a port of call covered by Article 9 of the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation under the jurisdiction of a Member State shall connect to on- shore power supply and use it for all energy needs except boilers and other thermal devices for which electrical supply is not applicable while at berth.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 5 – paragraph 6
6. From 1 January 2035, the exceptions listed in paragraph 3, points (d) and (e), may not be applied to a given ship, in total, more than five times during one reporting year. A port call shall not be counted for the purpose of compliance with this provision where the company demonstrates that it could not have reasonably known that the ship will be unable to connect for reasons referred to in paragraph 3, points (d) and (e). In line with Article 28, the European Commission should present a report on the availability of infrastructure for on shore power supply in European ports by 2030. Unless it is ascertained that the infrastructure is available in the ports visited by the ship, the exceptions under paragraph 3 should remain.

Amendment 421 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 21 – paragraph 1
1. The penalties referred to in Article 20(1) and 20(2) shall be allocated to support common projects aimed at the rapid deployment of renewable and low carbon fuels in the maritime sector. Projects financed by the funds collected from the penalties shall stimulate the production of greaterquired quantities of renewable and low carbon fuels for the maritime sector, facilitate the construction of appropriate bunkering facilities or electric connection ports in ports, and support the deveplopyment, testing and deployment of onboard ships of the most innovative European technologies in the fleet, as well as stimulating fleet renewal across the European Union shipbuilding industry, to achieve significant emission reductions.

The Commission shall present a preliminary report assessing the effectiveness and short comings of the Regulation to the European Parliament and the Council no more than five years after the coming into force of the Regulation. The Commission shall report to the European Parliament and the Council, by 1 January 2030, the results of an detailed and comprehensive evaluation on the functioning of this Regulation and the evolution of the technologies and market for renewable and low-carbon fuels in maritime transport and its impact on the maritime sector in the Union, including the risk and occurrence of carbon leakage arising from the implementation of the Regulation. The Commission shall consider possible amendments to:

Annex III – title
The following table provides a non- exhaustive list of zero-emission technologies as referred to in Article 5(3)(b), as well as, specific criteria for their use as applicable according to Article 3(g). Zero-emission technology: Criteria for use Fuel cells: Fuel cells used on board for power generation while at berth should be fully powered by renewable and low carbon fuels. On-board Electricity Storage: The use of on-board electricity storage is allowed taking into account the GHG intensity in the electricity production pathway of the stored power (on-board generation or on- shore in case of battery swapping). On-board Electricity production from wind and solar energy: Any ship that is capable to sustain energy needs at berth through the use of wind and solar energy The use of any zero-emission technologies shall continuously achieve emissions that are equivalent to the emissions reductions that would be achieved by using on-shore power supply.
