欧盟支持19个绿色海上项目

据世界天然气网站7月20日消息 欧盟正在通过新的资金承诺支持成员国转向更环保的交通燃料。

欧盟委员会在一份声明中称，将近1.42亿欧元将被分配给总共19个环保项目。

这些项目包括改装船舶，使其可以使用液化天然气，以及在港口安装相应的基础设施。

这笔资金是旨在推动欧盟经济复苏的计划的一部分。7月16日，欧盟宣布将向140个关键交通项目注资近22亿欧元。这些项目预计将有助于在整个非洲大陆建立缺失的运输联系，支持可持续运输和创造就业机会。

有了这笔预算，欧盟将实现欧洲绿色协议中规定的气候目标。

在海事部门，优先考虑以替代燃料为基础的短途海运项目，并为港口安装岸上电源，以减少停靠船舶的排放。

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.
