On Thursday night, negotiators from the EU Parliament, Council, and Commission agreed on a compromise for new fuel standards for ships (FuelEU Maritime) to decarbonize the maritime sector. Ships with a gross tonnage over 5,000 will have to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by two percent from 2025 compared to 2020, six percent from 2030, 14.5 percent from 2035, 31 percent from 2040, 62 percent from 2045, and 80 percent from 2050.
