3 steps to predict the carbon cost exposure of your shipping programme
If you’re a mid size charterer or owner you can expect an added carbon cost of approximately 10 million USD to your freight costs, once shipping enters the EU ETS.

For charterers who want to leverage the opportunities of the transition, it’s time to embrace the change and learn how to navigate the EU ETS. A good way to start is to understand how the new regulations impact your everyday work so we sum up some key aspects of the EU ETS - from a charterer’s perspective.
