• The current merchant fleet emits almost 1 billion tons of CO2 each year
• The European Commission estimates that without action the global share of shipping's GHG emissions may reach 17% by 2050.
• The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) has set a 50% reduction target of GHG emissions from maritime transport by 2050 compared to 2008 levels and an ambition of full decarbonisation by 2100.
• Maritime shipping moves around 75 % of the EU’s external trade and 30 % of intra-EU transport of goods.

State of play
Green hydrogen and fuel cells are an important piece of the puzzle to the decarbonization of our society as a whole and can therefore contribute to a rapid decrease of the average GHG emissions for shipping. As
the target requires the transition of a worldwide and complex sector, providing technology alone will not be enough….

Hydrogen Europe will work on maritime policy
CENTRAL OBSERVATION
• Except for biofuels (and batteries), all zero-emission and carbon neutral fuels that are envisaged (hydrogen, ammonia, E-LNG, E-diesel, E-methanol) are made from hydrogen.
CONSEQUENCE 1:
• Regulating GHG emissions and change of fuel will create a demand for H2.
• Hence shipping regulation becomes one of the short-term end-users regulation triggering the H2 economy
• We need to:
➢Push EU to be ambitious
➢ensure that the regulation is not used to favour LNG as fuel and/or biofuels as short-term solutions postponing all the rest.
CONSEQUENCE 2:
• we need to demonstrate we are able to provide H2 in sufficient quantity and at affordable price
• We need to cooperate not only with ships but also ports which are key H2 hubs.

State of play of the policy debateIMO is a facilitator of complex international negotiations
Policy initiatives in the EU
1. Submitting shipping to the Emission Trading System (ETS)2. A policy measure that would start enforcing the IMO targets3. Supporting innovation: first movers willing to launch the first zero/low emission shipping
PARLIAMENT
1. ETS to apply to all ships entering EU ports.
2. Other policy measure:
Operating standard: by 2030 ships entering EU ports must demonstrate 40% reduction of their emission compared to 2018 levels
3. Supporting Innovation & early adopters: the revenue of the ETS application on shipping should be used to fund
innovation, essentially early adopters.
Industry organisations at IMO are proposing a levy of 2$/ton to fund innovation …
EUROPEAN COMMISSION
1. ETS: President statement + in the Green Deal
“ETS should apply to the shipping sector” (an impact assessment should be initiated soon)
2. Other policy measure:
idea to regulate fuel suppliers (rather than ship owners/users) with a “blending mandate”.
HE position: Minimum share of sustainable fuels should not be definedas a blending requirement, as that would exclude some alternativefuels, like ammonia or hydrogen and would therefore not be trulytechnologically neutral.
3. Supporting Innovation & early adopters: EC views not known yet.

Hydrogen Europe: Open minded technology innovator
• The most crucial bottleneck with hydrogen as a fuel, is likely not the production of renewablehydrogen or the end-point use but rather the storage both onshore and onboard the vessels.
• Power and autonomy are the key determining factors in this regard.
• A comparison tool was developed by Hydrogen Europe indicating the fuel option based on powerand distance between bunkering (level of autonomy)
The objective is to give a rapid and transparent understanding of the key parameters (and barriers) in the technical and policy debate
H2 is a very light molecule and has a high volumetric energy density
• Many demonstration projects have already been rolled out on an ad hoc basis, both through the use
of hydrogen fuel cells and by using hydrogen combustion engines but a more structured approach is
necessary. In order to build consensus, Hydrogen Europe has looked at the available technology,
their strengths and weaknesses, and their technology readiness levels (TRL), to draw future
perspectives of hydrogen markets and propose deployment scenarios.

Collaboration with zero emission waterborne transport
• As we speak large bunkering ports in the ARA (Antwerp-Rotterdam-Amsterdam) region are building hydrogen fuelled tugboats. Such projects which will trigger the design, deployment and operation of a hydrogen supply chains and the decarbonisation of ports
• In Denmark a partnership has been formed between port, airports, shipowners, …the first of its kind to develop an industrial-scale production facility to produce sustainable fuels for road, maritime and air transport in the Copenhagen area. The partnership brings together the demand and supply side of sustainable fuels
Ports as hydrogen valleys
• The lifetime of ships (on average 30 years) highlights the urgency of enrolling hydrogen as a fuel as soon as possible, to avoid that the fleet renewal of the next years will include too many fossil fuelled ships (and fossil fuel infrastructure) which will then still service global trade and EU-trade for decades to come.
• Hydrogen Europe has looked at the available technology, their strengths and weaknesses, and their technology readiness levels (TRL), to propose deployment scenarios for ships and the infrastructure
• When it comes to fuel production costs alone, pure hydrogen options are always cheaper than fuels that require further ‘transformation’ – regardless of electricity price
• We found that for the large ship Ammonia is the cheapest synthetic fuel (based on renewable hydrogen)
Concluding remarks
• Europe has a strong leadership position in hydrogen technologies in general and testing it in shipping.
• Europe’s role in shipping value chain is dependent on innovation
• By accelerating research, scaling up, and, at the same time, developing hydrogen supply chains, Europe will maintain and strengthen its position.
