What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Fund for Energy Efficiency Technologies (FEET) became the first investment fund to adopt the revised Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance (SAT). This taxonomy, announced by the Singapore Sustainable Finance Association (SSFA) with support from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), recognizes vessel retrofits and energy efficiency technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. FEET uses this framework to direct capital toward vessel retrofits and energy efficiency technologies.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The adoption establishes a framework to direct capital toward sustainable maritime investment. This expands the scope of sustainable maritime investment beyond new low-emission vessels to include technologies that improve the environmental performance of existing ships.

The International Maritime Organization is setting zero-emission fuel definitions, while the Monetary Authority of Singapore supports the launch of the SSFA's taxonomy in Singapore.
