Commission proposal for an amendment of Directive 1999/32/EC

This amendment will:

  • align the Directive with the latest IMO provisions on the sulphur content of marine fuels;
  • adapt the Directive to the IMO provisions on alternative compliance methods;
  • maintain the link between the stricter fuel standards in SECAs and the fuel requirements for passenger ships on regular service;
  • improve implementation of the Directive by harmonising and strengthening provisions for monitoring of compliance and reporting.
