IMO - MEPC.1/683 Guidance for the Development of a SEEMP recognizes that operational efficiencies will make an invaluable contribution to reducing global carbon emissions. Its main purpose is to establish a mechanism for a company and/or a ship to improve the energy efficiency of a ship’s operation that is preferably linked to a broader corporate energy management policy. The SEEMP is to be customized to characteristics and needs of individual companies and ships.
The IMO guideline itself can be found at the IMO website www.imo.org. Please note that this will be updated over the coming 12-months or more, and whilst it is not expected to change too much, it will be modified. Always check the IMO website for the latest version.
