    • 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 ...
    • 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 ...
    • 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 ...
    • Revitalization of short sea shipping through slender, simplified and standardized designs SMC-007-2016 

      Lindstad, Elizabeth; Eskeland, Gunnar; Sandaas, Inge; Steen, Sverre (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Despite the political objective of decreasing road transport and transfer cargo to rail and sea, short sea shipping is struggling. Historically, building larger vessels has been the main pathway for reducing fuel consumption ...
    • Sulphur Abatement Globally in Maritime Shipping 

      Lindstad, Elizabeth; Rehn, Carl Fredrik; Eskeland, Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      In 2016, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) decided on global regulations to reduce sulphur emissions to air from maritime shipping starting 2020. The regulation implies that ships can continue to use residual ...
    • The Need to Amend IMO’s EEDI to Include a Threshold for Performance in Waves (Realistic Sea Conditions) to Achieve the Desired GHG Reductions 

      Lindstad, Elizabeth; Borgen, Henning; Eskeland, Gunnar; Paalson, Christopher; Psaraftis, Harialos; Turan, Osman (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-04)
      The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has established the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) as the most important policy measure to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from shipping. A vessel’s EEDI is based ...
    • Wise use of renewable energy in transport 

      Lindstad, Elizabeth; Ask, Tor Øyvind; Cariou, Pierre; Eskeland, Gunnar; Rialland, Agathe Isabelle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The transport sector accounts for around 25 % of global energy use, considering both fuel production and consumption. To mitigate climate change, a fast decarbonization of transport is therefore often seen as a necessity, ...
