據世界天然氣網站7月20日消息 歐盟正在通過新的資金承諾支持成員國轉向更環保的交通燃料。

歐盟委員會在一份聲明中稱，將近1.42億歐元將被分配給總共19個環保項目。

這些項目包括改裝船舶，使其可以使用液化天然氣，以及在港口安裝相應的基礎設施。

這筆資金是旨在推動歐盟經濟復蘇的計劃的一部分。7月16日，歐盟宣布將向140個關鍵交通項目注資近22億歐元。這些項目預計將有助于在整個非洲大陸建立缺失的運輸聯系，支持可持續運輸和創造就業機會。

有了這筆預算，歐盟將實現歐洲綠色協議中規定的氣候目標。

在海事部門，優先考慮以替代燃料為基礎的短途海運項目，并為港口安裝岸上電源，以減少停靠船舶的排放。

EU supports 19 green maritime projects

The European Union is supporting Member States’ shift to greener fuels for transport with new funding commitments.

Almost €142 million will be allocated for a total of nineteen environmentally friendly projects, the European Commission said in a statement.

As disclosed, a number of projects involve converting vessels so thay may run on liquefied natural gas (LNG), as well as installing the corresponding infrastructure in ports.

The funding is part of the plan aimed at boosting the EU’s economic recovery. On 16 July, the EU announced it would inject almost €2.2 billion into 140 key transport projects. These projects are expected to help build missing transport links across the continent, support sustainable transport and create jobs.

With this budget, the EU will deliver on its climate objectives set out in the European Green Deal.

In the maritime sector, priority is given to short-sea-shipping projects based on alternative fuels and the installation of on-shore power supply for ports to cut emissions from docked ships.
