Join Watson Farley & Williams for a breakfast seminar on Fuel EU and ETS on Thursday 3 April 2025 in Milan.
On 1 January 2025, the Fuel EU Maritime Regulation (Fuel EU) will come into force. The European Commission is claiming that it’s the first legislation of its kind globally, but it seems clear that even the Commission doesn’t quite understand how it will work in practice, or the impacts it could have on the shipping industry.
Fuel EU’s overarching purpose is to accelerate the use of renewable and low-carbon fuels in shipping. Fuel EU is intended to complement the EU Emissions Trading Scheme for maritime which came into force on 1 January 2024 and is specifically structured to promote the reduction of GHG intensity of ships arriving at, staying in or departing from an EU/ European Economic Area (“EEA”) port.
Fuel EU will start to apply from 1 January 2025. It is therefore imperative to understand now how best to prepare.
Join our maritime specialists, Michele Autuori, Nick Walker and Valentina Keys, who will discuss key ETS and Fuel EU risks and opportunities, how best to comply and how to secure maximum contractual protection to avoid the risk of litigation.
This seminar is an excellent opportunity to gain insight into the regulatory landscape facing the maritime sector, and network with industry peers over breakfast.
