EU ETS surcharges to be increased

/in

As of January 1st, 2025, the EU ETS surcharge ( = Emissions Trading System) for shipping companies will be increased from 40% to 70%.
This is part of the EU Commission’s “Green Deal” to reduce transport-related emissions by 90% by 2050.
Since January 1st 2024, maritime transport has also been included in the EU emissions trading system. This affects shipping companies operating between European ports in the EU or the European Economic Area. These levies are intended to promote the use of renewable energies and low-CO2 fuels. For this reason, increased surcharges on the part of shipping companies are to be expected from January 1st 2025. Over the next few years, the levies will be gradually increased further.
