The Emission Trading System (ETS) is a key EU instrument to tackle climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.As the new European sustainability policies come into force from January 2024, affecting the shipping industry, we are committed to maintaining transparency and keeping passengers informed of the latest updates.The EU ETS has been introduced by the competent authorities to further regulate emissions of carbon or other greenhouse gases. This measure can serve various purposes, such as incentivizing emission reductions, financing environmental initiatives and stimulating technological innovation.
The ticket price includes the “EU ETS contribution.” This amount, which varies depending on the route, will be applied to each passenger and each vehicle.Currently, connections Santa Teresa-Bonifacio-Santa Teresa, to Elba, and the Tuscan Archipelago are exempt from the EU ETS system.For more information, see Reducing emissions from the maritime sector - European Commission (europa.eu)
