SCIPPER: Shipping Contributions to Inland Pollution Push for the Enforcement of Regulations
SCIPPER is a European project which aims at deploying state-of-art and next-generation measurement techniques to monitor emissions of vessels under their normal operation.
SCIPPER objectives are achieved in five real-world experimental campaigns involving actual vessels and the largest ports in the EU. A mirror activity in Asia has been scheduled to validate results obtained in the EU.
The main objectives of SCIPPER are:
- To provide evidence on the performance and capacity of different techniques for shipping emissions monitoring and regulations’ enforcement
- To assess the impacts of shipping emissions on air quality, under different regulatory enforcement scenarios
The SCIPPER project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement Nr.814893
