A key IMO initiative ship decarbonization - the Global Industry Alliance (GIA) to Support Low Carbon Shipping - will intensify its work on the ship-port interface to reduce emissions from ships. This is one of the outcomes of a GIA task force meeting. During the meeting, the IMO Secretariat discussed progress on a number of ongoing projects and set tangible goals for GIA up to 2023. Participants agreed to continue work under the existing workstreams, including alternative fuels and validating the performance of energy efficiency technologies, and to expand these even further.
