IMO's work to cut GHG emissions from ships
The 2023 IMO GHG Strategy outlines a set of "mid-term measures" (which build on previously adopted " short-term measures") aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping in line with the reduction targets set out in the Strategy.
In order to significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from international shipping , effective global measures are desirable. In July 2023 the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) made a step on this path committing to new targets for GHG emissions reductions and to develop and adopt in 2025 a basket of measure (s), delivering on ...

Learn interim targets , challenges, real-world cases, and trends shaping global shipping . On July 7, 2023, at IMO Headquarters in London, delegates from across the globe applauded as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted its 2023 Strategy on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions from Ships.
The implications of the IMO Revised GHG Strategy for shipping
The Paris Agreement does not include international shipping , but IMO, as the regulatory body for the industry, is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping . IMO continues to work on refining guidance and on the implementation of the regulations, through the MEPC. Implementing the 2018 Initial IMO GHG Strategy
Greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The International Maritime Organization (IMO) aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from international shipping by or around 2050 and to cut GHG emissions by 20%-30% below 2008 levels by 2030 and by 70%-80% by 2040. For the IMO to monitor progress and revise the GHG reduction strategy if required, periodic global emissions inventory reports are needed ...
IMO Adopts Stricter GHG Emission Targets for Shipping
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) formally adopted revised and more ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets , signaling a stronger commitment to decarbonizing the shipping sector.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2023, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted a revised strategy that aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from international shipping to net-zero by or around 2050. The strategy includes indicative checkpoints targeting a 20% reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 (striving for 30%) and a 70% reduction by 2040 (striving for 80%), both measured against ...
