An On-board Energy and Environmental Analysis within the of Green Deal

Abstract

After the industrial revolution, advances in science, industry and technology cause relative abundance and the development of economies. Trade and transportation sectors are also developing in line with the development of economies. However, in order for the prosperity and abundance brought about by industrialization to be sustainable, the environment must be protected. Within the scope of environmental protection, many international measures are taken that concern every sector and investments are made to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase energy efficiency and develop alternative energy generation technologies. Decision support tools have been used significantly in all sectors in the last quarter century in order to help decision makers and to produce alternatives to changing situations. Maritime trade and ships, one of the most important milestones of the transportation industry for centuries, constitute an important part of the greenhouse gas emitted worldwide. In this study, it is aimed to reduce carbon emission from sea transportation and ships. In this context, energy analysis of a chemical tanker ship within the framework of the Reference Energy System concept has been performed. The calculations made with the LEAP Decision Support Tool in line with the decisions taken by the European Union and were analysed in detail.
