Faced with a growing compliance burden, ship operators are seeking solutions to simplify their reporting workload. Accelleron uses data-driven insights to ease this burden, turning compliance challenges into strategic opportunities.

If a shipowner were to write down all the maritime emissions regulations they must comply with, they would soon be calling for a bigger notepad. Regulators including the International Maritime Organization and the European Union are adding further requirements to their existing regimes over the coming years, while national authorities in China, the US and the UK are introducing their own edicts. In an ideal world all these regulations would be harmonized. In reality, discrepancies in the data required, verification processes, and reporting periods and formats are inevitable. At a time when ship operators already have their hands full pursuing long-term decarbonization targets, the additional compliance requirements add to the challenge.

In this growing labyrinth of global and regional regulations, compliance is not merely an administrative challenge. It is also becoming a financial challenge, as noncompliance can incur significant fines and pose a risk to business continuity.
