Amendment 75 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 12
(12) Access to emission abatement methods should be facilitated. Those methods can provide emission reductions at least equivalent to, or even greater than, those achievable using low sulphur fuel, provided that they have no significant negative impacts on the environment, such as marine ecosystems, or on human health, and that they are developed subject to appropriate approval and control mechanisms. The criteria for use of emission abatement methods should be established either by the IMO, subject to supplementation or amendment by the Commission Decision or, in the absence of the IMO instruments, by the European Commission. The already known alternative methods, such as the use of on- board exhaust gas cleaning systems or the mixture of fuel and liquefied natural gas (LNG) should be recognised in the Union. It is important to promote and financially assist the testing and development of new emission abatement methods.
