IMPLICATIONS, CONSEQUENCES AND RISKS

The change of paradigm regarding the inclusion of maritime transport in the European emission rights trading system

Abstract

This paper deals with the analysis of the consequences and risks that the Maritime EU ETS proposal would entail at an environmental, economic, and operational level in European ports. First, the analysis is focused on European ports neighbouring non-EU regions with a significant border component, as different rules prevail. And second, it also focuses on the consequences of a possible relocation of port activities on restructuring transport and supply chains in the EU.
