Overview

Background & policy context:

In 2001, the remit of the EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) extended from the industrial/manufacturing sector to cover other economic sectors, including public and private services that have an environmental impact. The move has opened up new opportunities for the shipping sector.

Objectives:

The objective of the EMAS-SHIP project was to develop innovative methods for the environmental management of shipping companies and to support the implementation of the EMAS regulation in shipping companies. The project aimed to identify best practices and help the development of a model and technical manual with specific tools for implementing EMAS.
