Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII)
What is the CII regulation?
The Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) measures ships’ carbon efficiency, calculating CO2 emissions per tonne-mile of cargo. Ships are rated from A (most efficient) to E (least efficient), encouraging greener practices.
How can ships improve their energy efficiency?
Ships can improve their CII rating by optimizing speed, using sustainable fuels, and installing energy-saving technologies. Performance is recorded in the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP), with annual reviews to ensure continuous improvement.
What does CII mean for compliance?
CII measures a ship’s CO2 emissions per cargo capacity and nautical mile, with stricter thresholds over time. Ships rated D for three years or E for one year must submit a corrective plan to achieve a C rating or better. This applies to ships over 5,000 GT.
EU Emission Trading System (EU ETS)
What is the EU ETS (EU Emission Trading System) regulation?
The EU Emission Trading System (EU ETS) requires shipping companies to report CO2 emissions and hold emission allowances. Ships are rated from A to E based on their Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), with performance recorded in the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP).
What is the impact on your business?
Customers will pay for their emissions, with costs rising from 90 Euros per ton of CO2 now to about 280 Euros by 2026. As emission quotas decrease, the Carbon Price will increase.
What does EU ETS mean for compliance?
Shipping companies must report CO2 emissions and hold enough allowances to cover them. Non-compliance can result in fines and operational restrictions, making it essential to adapt to these regulations.
FuelEU Maritime
What is the FuelEU maritime initiative?
The EU Fuel regulation, part of the FuelEU Maritime initiative, aims to reduce the carbon intensity of maritime fuels. It sets targets for greenhouse gas emission reductions, promotes renewable and low-carbon fuels, mandates on-shore power supply for ships in major EU ports, and includes penalties and incentives for compliance. This aligns with the EU’s Fit for 55 package and European Climate Law.
What is the impact on your business?
The regulation requires businesses to adopt renewable and low-carbon fuels, potentially necessitating investments in new fuel technologies and infrastructure, especially for on-shore power supply at major EU ports.
What does FuelEU mean for compliance?
Shipping companies must meet stringent standards to reduce carbon intensity, using low-carbon and renewable fuels by set deadlines. Non-compliance can result in fines and operational restrictions. Maritime operators need to upgrade fuel systems and adopt compliant fuels to align with EU regulations for a sustainable maritime sector.

MAN EcoCam
The MAN EcoCam is a low-cost, simple fuel saving product. This low-load optimized virtual cam gives you lower emissions and instant fuel savings between 10% and 60% load. The MAN EcoCam enables efficient slow steaming with operational flexibility for mechanical engines and is available for engines with a wide exhaust camshaft.
MAN EcoNozzle
Fuel savings with the MAN EcoNozzle, the latest addition to the new MAN Eco family designed to provide fuel savings in the entire load range! With this new concept fitted, your engine will have state-of–the-art combustion control.
PMI VIT
PMI VIT system is used for mechanically controlled MAN B&W two-stroke engines and ensures the optimal cylinder pressure by controlling fuel-injection timing via an electronic actuator on the VIT (variable injection timing) rack.
Flexible Turbocharger Cut-Out
The Flexible Turbocharger Cut-Out (TCCO) gives operators the option to disable one of the turbochargers for slow steaming operation. This improves the performance of the remaining turbochargers, thus reducing SFOC.
ME/ME-B/ME-C retrofit solutions
MAN EcoTorque
Governor control to improve cylinder liner condition and lower fuel consumption. MAN EcoTorque improves the cylinder liner condition and fuel consumption by stabilizing the fuel index. This means that short-term external influences will not put excess strain on the engine, and the fuel index will remain steady.
