Guidance on the carriage of AFVs in RO-RO spaces

The EMSA Guidance on the Carriage of AFVs in Ro-Ro Spaces was developed with the support of a group of experts from the European Commission, EU Member States and the industry. The Guidance is intended to assist relevant authorities and stakeholders in ensuring that the carriage of alternatively fuelled vehicles onboard ships is conducted safely and with due regard for protection of the environment. It can be applied to new and existing ships.

The Guidance might be updated in the mid-term according to the experience gathered and/or should new relevant input from studies or stakeholders be available. EMSA would welcome any report/comment coming from either studies or the experience in applying this Guidance.
