Contractual Challenges Posed by the FuelEU Maritime Regulation in the Implementation of the New Regulatory Framework – and Future Scenarios

As of January 2025, the maritime transport sector is significantly impacted by the FuelEU Maritime Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1805) (“Regulation” or “FEUM”), adopted on September 13, 2023. This Regulation imposes stringent restrictions on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from large ships within its scope and constitutes a fundamental cornerstone of the European Union’s strategy to transition towards sustainable transportation and achieve full decarbonisation of the transport sector by 2050. The year 2025 will be pivotal for shipping companies, as they will be required to integrate these new regulatory requirements into their business operations. This will not only have economic repercussions but will also necessitate revisions to contractual relationships. Maritime operators must ensure that existing contracts reflect the Regulation’s new obligations and

Climate Finance and Economic Mechanisms: Two Essential Yet Mismatched Pieces of the Sustainable Transport Puzzle 

Transport is a key driver of socio-economic prosperity and livelihoods, enabling passenger and goods movement, powering international trade, and safeguarding rapid crisis recovery. In 2021, the transport sector contributed 7% (USD 6.8 trillion) of the global GDP and employed 5.6% of the world’s workforce (193 million people) [1]. However, transport is also the second-largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sector, accounting for roughly 15.9% of global GHG emissions and 21.9% of total CO2 emissions in 2023. To safeguard the sector’s critical role in our societies and economies, transport systems worldwide will have to undergo significant transformations to become more sustainable, low-carbon, equitable and resilient. Central to these will be fundamental changes in how transport is financed, be it through public or
