The IMO’s previous goal was a 50 percent reduction by 2050 in comparison with 2008 levels. At the same time, it’s becoming apparent that alternative-fuel solutions we’re looking at have big drawbacks, and that producing these fuels will take a lot of green power that will be needed to replace coal and gas on shore.
