T-1B4b-A-1 - Sea freight

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.

Transition Elements

This activity has the following mitigation methods modelled as transition elements:

• T-1B1b-TE-9 - Shift from heavy truck to sea
• T-1B4b-A-1 - Sea freight
• T-1B4b-TE-1 - Shift to LNG fuel for marine freight transport
• T-1B4b-TE-2 - More efficient marine freight transport
• T-1B4b-TE-4 - Biofuel for marine freight transport
• T-1B4b-TE-5 - Shift to electric marine freight transportion
