Amendment 60 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 a (new)
Paragraph 1 a (new)
1a. Calls on the Commission and the Member States to support investment and research in new green technologies, sustainable fuels in maritime transport as well as recharging and refuelling infrastructures in ports, in order to promote the development of eco-designed green ships, ranging from hull and engines designs, to better waste and water management, paints and materials, and encourage technology transfer in these area, such as wind propulsion;
Amendment 68 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 b (new)
Paragraph 1 b (new)
1b. Calls on the Commission, as part of its European Industrial Recovery Plan, to promote and invest in a European green ship industry on its territory, taking the leadership in developing new eco- designed ships, renovation and modernisation of existing vessels and dismantlement; calls on the EU to modernise and green its shipbuilding yards, in line with the Green Deal’s objectives ;
Amendment 118 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2 a (new)
Paragraph 2 a (new)
2a. Underlines that sustainable transport on waters and seas and zero- emission ports would contribute to tackle pollution and ensure a healthier environment for citizens in coastal areas; strongly supports the establishment of Emission Control Areas in all EU waters;
Amendment 125 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2 b (new)
Paragraph 2 b (new)
2b. Underlines that digitalisation of transports such as more advanced navigation systems and automatic identification systems, can be used to carryout technical operations and maintenance, for example to predict the most fuel-efficient way to operate a ship on a specific route, making them more energy-efficient; digitalisation also bears a high potential with new technologies for port call optimisation, which contributes to reduce waiting times for vessels in the ports and therefore emissions;
Amendment 154 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Takes the view that the decarbonisation of societies can be facilitated by shortening production- consumption circuits, reducing the impact of long distribution chains through life- cycle analysis and promoting local production;
Amendment 155 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Stresses that combined transport of goods contributes to the reduction of transport emissions by promoting a shift from road freight transport to lower- emission transport modes, including shore sea shipping and zero-emission rivers corridors; underlines in this regard the necessity to support investments in refuelling and recharging infrastructures in maritime and inland ports; calls on the Commission to assess the feasibility of the establishment of an “eco-bonus” to reward operators using shore sea shipping and waterway transport to transport their goods;
Amendment 172 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Advocates that the objective of global emissions reduction in the transport sector should be grounded in a regulatory approach that is no longer exclusively focused on market-based instruments, makes each economic agent responsible and paves the way for the rapid dissemination of the best available technologies and exchange of best practices.
