The objective of Policy Area (PA) ‘Ship’ is for the Baltic Sea region to become a model region for clean shipping.
Countries in the Baltic Sea region need to act jointly to minimise ship-based pollution, while maximising the positive impact of maritime transport on the region. PA Ship actions include creating infrastructure for alternative fuels in the Baltic Sea region, as well as supporting measures that reduce emissions from ships, such as technical installations or issues of enforcement of environmental regulation for ships operating in the Baltic Sea.
PA Ship is coordinated by Denmark.
