LONDON: Shipowners say they are trying to cut their heavy-polluting industry's impact on the environment by using cleaner energy - but some have stalled over limiting the speed of ships.
French companies are driving the development of new ships that can run on less-polluting liquefied natural gas, but that does require suitable storage facilities and engines.Advertisement The IMO has in the meantime decided that from next year sulphur content in heavy fuel oil will be cut to 0.5 per cent from 3.5 per cent.
The reduction reaches 30 per cent if it travels at only 10 knots, according to the French Ministry for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition.
