Emission Trading for International Shipping

Emission Trading for International Shipping

On the basis of a questionnaire from the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development (BMVBS) the Center for European Economic Research (ZEW) discussed various possible design options for a Maritime Emission Trading System (METS). Concretely, the ZEW supported the BMVBS by discussing and assessing individual aspects of a METS from an economic perspective and considers in particular possible economic implications for the maritime industry.
