What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A new report was launched on September 1, 2026, tracking the shipping industry's progress toward its 2030 climate targets. These targets require that 5-10% of the fuel used in international shipping comes from scalable zero-emission sources (SZEF) by 2030. The report indicates that this progress is being hampered by regulatory uncertainty, the crisis in Hormuz, energy security concerns, and supply chain issues.
