Accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of shipping Shanghai Lingang New Area has established a green shipping industry alliance
Recently, the Shanghai Lingang New Area Management Committee held a green shipping promotion conference, and jointly initiated the establishment of the Lingang New Area Green Shipping Industry Alliance with China COSCO Shipping Group, State Power Investment Group, SIPG Group, China Classification Society, and Global Methanol Industry Association.
It is reported that the alliance will establish an open platform and cooperation mechanism, adhere to the highest international standards, attract shipping and port enterprises with global influence, green new energy production and preparation enterprises, green fuel filling service enterprises, carbon footprint monitoring and carbon trading institutions, industrial funds, etc., accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of the international shipping industry, promote exchanges and cooperation between the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, and actively participate in methanol, The formulation of green new energy standards such as ammonia and technology research and development have improved the service capacity of green new energy refueling for Shanghai Port, and cultivated a carbon management team with an international vision and a global vision.
The construction of an international shipping supply service system, the improvement of high-end shipping service functions, and the construction of a high-energy global shipping hub are important institutional innovation tasks specified in the overall plan of the State Council for the Lingang New Area. At present, the green and low-carbon transformation of the international shipping industry has become the focus of global attention.
Chen Jinshan, member of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, Secretary of the Party Working Committee and Director of the Management Committee of the Lingang New Area, pointed out that the Lingang New Area will focus on the development of high-end shipping services, highlight digital empowerment, make greater efforts to explore new models of cross-border data flow, actively participate in the national pilot of digital application of shipping trade, deepen the application of blockchain technology in the field of shipping trade, and empower the transformation and upgrading of the shipping industry. The application of new energy such as ammonia in the shipping industry will accelerate the construction of the whole industrial chain of green shipping.
At the conference, Goldwind issued a proposal on behalf of the industry alliance, calling on relevant units to accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of the industry and the construction of infrastructure such as filling ships and storage tanks, so as to jointly promote the healthy development of the industry. Chris Chatterton, Chief Operating Officer of the Global Methanol Industry Association, released the Global Green Methanol Database, introducing the orders for methanol-powered ships and the layout of global green methanol production and preparation projects. China Marine Gas issued the group standard of "Regulations for Marine Methanol Bunkering", and put forward relevant technical solutions and suggestions for methanol "ship-to-ship" bunkering in combination with the relevant planning of Shanghai Port. The China Hydrogen Energy Alliance issued the group standard "Evaluation Methods and Requirements for Hydrogen-based Green Fuels", which proposes quantitative standards and evaluation basis for the preparation of green methanol based on green hydrogen. Zhongli Inspection released the first emission reduction assessment model for the green methanol industry chain based on international certification, and established an emission reduction assessment model for the establishment of a whole-process traceable carbon capture, carbon storage, geological storage and carbon substitution balance system. The Shanghai Maritime Safety Administration issued the "Measures for the Safety Management of Methanol Bunkering Operations on Water", which clarified the requirements for methanol bunkering technical specifications and the qualifications of management objects, and filled the gap in the management system of domestic marine methanol bunkering operations. Shanghai Port Zhiyuan Fuel Co., Ltd., as the first batch of pilot enterprises, was approved to carry out green methanol "ship-to-ship" bunkering services on a pilot basis.
At the meeting, Future Energy Development Shanghai Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Jiyuan Green Energy Co., Ltd. signed two green new energy production and preparation projects and settled in Lingang.
