This plan should outline how you intend to monitor and report emissions for each ship in your fleet. This should be completed by 31 August 2024 or within 2 months after first port of call in 2025.<\/li>\n<li>Start reporting key data related to FuelEU Maritime from 1 January 2025. This data includes fuel consumption, carbon emissions, and distance travelled.<\/li>\n<li>Submit the individual ship\u2019s FuelEU reports by 31 January 2026.<\/li>\n<li>By 30 April 2026, have the compliance balance approved in the FuelEU Maritime database<\/li>\n<li>By 30 June 2026, have the FuelEU Document of Compliance on board. This is also the penalty payment deadline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong>What Mechanisms to Adopt to Ensure You are Meeting your FuelEU Maritime Targets<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use energy sources<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>of a lower well-to-wake GHG intensity<\/strong>, such as sustainable biofuels like B24 BioFuel, renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO), recycled carbon fuels (RCF), Fossil LNG\/LPG, shore power, wind-assisted propulsion, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ensure\u00a0<\/strong><strong>fuel is purchased from traders with EU recognized Sustainability Certification<\/strong>\u00a0(achieved when systems such as the ISCC EU scheme is adopted)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use of flexibility mechanisms,<\/strong>\u00a0such as borrowing an advance compliance surplus from the next year (maximum 2%, not allowed for two consecutive periods) or include the ship\u2019s compliance balance in a pool of ships (also possible in collaboration with other companies)<\/li>\n<li><strong>For Fuel Suppliers: Integrate robust systems established by credible institutes such as the ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) EU Schemes\u00a0<\/strong>into your organisations procedures, which ensures sustainability in feedstock production (e.g. Proof-of-Sustainability documents from fuel traders), traceability of sustainable products through the supply chain as well as credible, verified reductions of life cycle emissions<a name=\"_Hlk182908670\"><\/a>. With the ISCC system recognized under the EU\u2019s revised Renewable Energy Directive (\u201cRED II\u201d) as well as other major energy markets, ISCC certification is set to play a major role under the upcoming FuelEU Maritime regulation and beyond.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong>CTI-Maritec offers FuelEU Maritime and ISCC services &amp;
