    Solution

    India has recently been designated as the lead pioneer country for the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Green Voyage2050 Project.  The overarching objective of the project is to assist in the effective implementation of the Initial IMO GHG Strategy.  This initiative extends support to developing nations in their endeavors to diminish Green House Gas emissions originating from ships.  The Initial IMO Strategy articulates a clear vision and ambitious targets, including the aspiration to reduce total annual GHG emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared to 2008.  The project aims to enhance compliance with MARPOL Annex VI, facilitate the exchange of operational best practices, stimulate the adoption of energy-efficient technologies, and explore opportunities for low- and zero-carbon fuels.
