Abstract:

  • We investigates the effects of speed reductions for maritime transport.
  • The selection of ship classes represent the words fleet.
  • The transport volumes are kept constant.
  • The model includes both cost and emissions as a function of speed.
  • The results show that there is a substantial potential for reducing CO2 emissions from shipping.
