Lindstad, Elizabeth; Polic, Drazen; Rialland, Agathe Isabelle; Sandaas, Inge; Stokke, Tor (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Sixth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) stresses the urgency to rapidly reduce global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions to contain global warming. The main focus in the design of ... -
Decarbonizing Maritime Transport: The Importance of Engine Technology and Regulations for LNG to serve as a Transition Fuel
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Eskeland, Gunnar; Rialland, Agathe Isabelle; Valland, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Current Greenhous gas emissions (GHG) from maritime transport represent around 3% of global anthropogenic GHG emissions and will have to be cut in half by 2050 to meet Paris agreement goals. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is ... -
An economic analysis of introducing autonomous ships in a short‐sea liner shipping network
Akbar, Abeera; Aasen, Anna Kristine Almestad; Msakni, Mohamed Kais; Fagerholt, Kjetil; Lindstad, Elizabeth; Meisel, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-16)The development of autonomous ships is at an advanced stage. It seems to be just a question of time before such ships become available at an industrial scale. In this paper, we investigate the economic advantages of utilizing ... -
Economic savings linked to future Arctic shipping are at odds with climate change mitigation
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Bright, Ryan M.; Strømman, Anders Hammer (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)This paper assesses costs, emissions, and climate impact by freight shipping in the Arctic with main focus on the Northern Sea Route. The entire route lies in Arctic waters, which due to global warming, has become ice free ... -
Environmental regulations in shipping: Policies leaning towards globalization of scrubbers deserve scrutiny
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Eskeland, Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-08)ABSTRACT Emission regulations for Sulphur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are motivated by health- and other environmental objectives in local and regional settings, while global warming concerns motivate policies ... -
Environmental Taxation in Transport
Eskeland, Gunnar; Lindstad, Elizabeth (Journal article, 2016)Abstract For the purpose of providing public goods (e.g. air quality, congestion management and greenhouse gas mitigation), the transportation sector employs – and should employ – imperfect policy instruments, such as fuel ... -
Improving Cost and Fuel efficiency of short sea Ro-Ro vessels through more Slender Designs – a feasibility study
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Mørch, Hans Jørgen; Sandass, Inge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Despite the political objective of decreasing road transport and transfer cargo to rail and sea, short sea shipping is struggling. There is therefore a need for development of new short sea Ro-Ro vessels which use significantly ... -
LNG and cruise ships, an easy way to fulfil regulations-versus the need for reducing GHG emissions
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Rialland, Agathe Isabelle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Liquified natural gas (LNG), with its low sulphur content, its favorable hydrogen-to-carbon ratio, and the lower nitrogen oxide emission when combusted compared to conventional fuels, fulfils all International Maritime ... -
Maritime Shipping and Emissions: A three-layered, damage based approach
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Eskeland, Gunnar; Psaraftis, Harilaos; Sandaas, Inge; Strømman, Anders Hammer (Journal article, 2015)Policy emphasis in ship design must be shifted away from global and idealized towards regional based and realistic vessel operating conditions. The present approach to reducing shipping emissions through technical standards ... -
Open Hatch Carriers – Future Vessel Designs & Operations
Lindstad, Elizabeth; Alterskjær, Sverre Anders; Sandaas, Inge; Solheim, Astrid Vamråk; Vigsnes, Joakim Tveiten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The development of Open hatch carriers (OHC) dates back to the early 1960s linked to transport of newsprint from the paper mills along the coast of British Columbia (Canada) to the news-printers in San Francisco and Los ... -
