ICCT conducts study on shore power in US

International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), an NGO from Washington DC, conducts the study which is the first nationwide American port emissions screening for at-berth vessels. Using the ICCT’s systematic assessment of vessel emissions model and automatic identification system (AIS) data, the study estimates how much pollution is emitted by at-berth vessels and then identifies

MathPro study for ICCT finds hydrotreating an inexpensive approach

A study by MathPro Inc., prepared for the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), has found that hydrotreating is an inexpensive approach to produce near-zero naphthalenes petroleum jet fuel (PJF) for contrail abatement. The report estimates an incremental cost of 0.09 to 0.12 USD/gallon (~€0.03/L) to hydrotreat fossil jet fuel at the conversion refineries that

Study at sea on methane slip commences

A new joint project will use onboard techniques and drones to measure methane emissions from ships. The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) is leading the project called FUgitive Methane Emissions from Ships (FUMES), in collaboration with Danish-based Explicit and the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO). Using in-stack continuous emissions monitoring, drones, and
