The remaining carbon dioxide is stored in the tank and reused in onshore methanol production. According to the European Environment Agency (EEA), maritime transport is responsible for more than 3% of the total carbon emissions in the European Union. © Fraunhofer. In 2019 alone, emissions reached 144 million tonnes of CO 2.
