The maritime industry is in the
The maritime industry is in the midst of a transformative shift, focusing on boosting energy efficiency and cutting down greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Central to this evolution are key initiatives (EEXI, CII) by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
While the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) focuses on setting technical standards to ensure ships meet specific energy efficiency requirements, the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) Rating assesses the operational performance of vessels to promote continuous improvement in their carbon emissions.
In this article, we’ll demystify EEXI, highlight its significance, and outline the steps to achieve compliance if your vessel does not currently meet EEXI requirements.
What is EEXI?
The EEXI is a measure designed to evaluate the energy efficiency of existing ships. It applies to all vessels with a gross tonnage of over 400 tons and is part of the IMO’s broader strategy to cut GHG emissions from shipping by at least 40% by 2030 compared to 2008 levels. EEXI came into effect on 1st January 2023. Consider the EEXI as a benchmark for evaluating your ship’s energy efficiency.
The EEXI is similar to the Energy
