Shipping plays a pivotal role in the global economy, facilitating around 80% of world merchandise trade by volume1. However, its environmental footprint has become a growing concern. In 2024, shipping accounted for roughly 3% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions2, releasing around 1,000 MtCO2e. Without significant intervention3, this share could climb to 17% by 2050. This trajectory highlights the urgent need for decisive climate action in the maritime sector.<\/p>\n

In response, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted ambitious decarbonisation targets aiming for net-zero \u201cby or around\u201d 2050, with interim targets for 2030 and 2040.<\/strong> This transition falls within the typical lifetime of a ship, making the next two decades a critical window for investment and innovation. The real catalyst for change will be the recently agreed global carbon pricing mechanism,<\/strong> expected to significantly reshape investment decisions, operational strategies, and fuel choices across the industry.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Produced in partnership with New Energies Coalition, this report summarises the key outputs from a study that assesses the cost and implications of decarbonising shipping. It addresses three central questions:\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

  1. Nature of the transition<\/strong> What fuel-switching and technology measures will the shipping industry adopt, and what will be their associated costs?<\/li>\n
  2. Economic impacts<\/strong> How will decarbonisation affect costs for shippers and the price of shipped goods across different cargo types and trade routes?<\/li>\n
  3. Role of policy and finance<\/strong> How can industry, policymakers, and financiers work together to reduce costs and accelerate decarbonisation?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The study analysed the TCO (Total Costs of Ownership) for transporting a car and 20-foot container (as well as carried items: pair of shoes and car tyre) across three trade routes (intra-EU, Asia\u2013EU, and US-EU),<\/span>\u00a0and evaluated different decarbonisation options, including alternative fuels, electric propulsion, wind-assistance and onboard carbon capture.<\/p>\n

    This study provides insights into the cost implications of maritime decarbonisation, the interaction between regulatory frameworks and financing mechanisms, and the potential pass-through effects on the prices of everyday goods.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTherefore, meeting the IMO target will increase the average cost of shipping via a combination of carbon abatement options.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\tCarbon abatement costs for long-haul routes range between $200 and 700\/tCO2e, leading to an increase in average shipping cost of ~20% in 2030 and ~50% in 2040.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHowever, decarbonising can cost less than doing nothing, as the penalties paid for continued use of fossil fuels under existing and emerging IMO and EU policies is expected to be significant.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUltimately, the impact on shipping cost and goods prices will be small, as shipping costs represent a small fraction of total item prices, and decarbonisation affects only part of those costs (not e.g. terminal handling fees).\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
