Abstract
In order to systematically study the carbon emission reduction path suitable for China's inland river ships, this paper analyzes the actual situation of China's inland river ships ' operation scale, fleet structure, fuel consumption, etc., and combines the development of domestic and foreign carbon emission reduction technologies and the ship's own operating characteristics. Carbon emission reduction technology paths for China's inland river ships have been proposed in this paper, which includes different tonnage classes, different ship ages, and different types of river ships. Also, the expected application effects of each technology path are analyzed in depth in this paper. The research results can give a certain support for the implementation of carbon emission reduction in China's shipping industry.
Highlights
In recent years, China has continuously promoted the adjustment of the transportation structure, vigorously promoting the transfer of bulk cargo and medium and long-distance cargo to more environmentally friendly and green water transportation
The annual fuel consumption of inland river ships is about 7.0168 million tons, of which the annual fuel consumption of freight ships is 6,814,200 tons, and the annual fuel consumption of passenger ships is 132,600 tons
In addition to scrapping a part of the ships according to the prescribed natural life limit, through economic encouragement of old transport ships to be scrapped in advance and renewed into new energy clean energy ships, can achieve dual carbon reduction capabilities: Firstly, with the continuous development of China's shipbuilding industry, ship products have achieved rapid upgrades, especially the energy efficiency of China's ship engines during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, and the unit carbon emission intensity has decreased; secondly, Second, the old ships will be demolished and newly built into new energy and clean energy ships, with low or even zero carbon emission intensity compared with traditional diesel
Summary
China has continuously promoted the adjustment of the transportation structure, vigorously promoting the transfer of bulk cargo and medium and long-distance cargo to more environmentally friendly and green water transportation.
