    Overview

    ABSTRACT

    Ensuring the ecological and energy transition of its activity is a major challenge for the maritime sector, in a context where international regulations are imposing increasingly stringent measures. Achieving these transitions implies bringing together as many players as possible in the same value chain. This report reviews the work of the T2EM Coalition, supported by the French Maritime Cluster, which initiated such an approach in France. In particular, its work has led to the development of a national transition program and the creation of a national institute focused on maritime decarbonization.

     INTRODUCTION

    While it is a particularly efficient mode of transport in terms of energy efficiency and CO 2 emissions (particularly compared with air or road transport), maritime transport accounts for between 3% and 4% of global emissions, given the scale of the volumes transported. Like other economic sectors, this mode of transport must accelerate its energy transition, with international and European regulations coming into force in 2023, some of which aim for carbon neutrality by 2050.

    Leading maritime nations (Norway, Denmark, Singapore, the UK and the Netherlands) have structured research and innovation initiatives and programs focused on the sector's ecoenergy transition. In France, the Cluster Maritime Français (CMF) has structured and led the T2EM (Maritime Eco-Energy Transition) coalition to unite the national industry around this objective. We offer a look back at the T2EM project, whose work has resulted in a vision for 2050, shared by numerous players across the entire maritime value chain in France.
