Vessels with a minimum ESI score of 30 points or at least CSI-class 4 will be granted a 10% discount on port dues, based on GT.
Vessels that bunker at least 30% fossil-free fuel of their annual consumption get an additional 10% discount. The condition for receiving the new environmental discount is that the fossil-free fuel must be bunkered in Gothenburg. The purpose of the new environmental discount is to speed up the transition to more climate-neutral shipping and is therefore planned to last a number of years.
The discount is given retroactively upon receipt of documentation showing:
– The amount of fossil-free fuel bunkered in Gothenburg (X thousand tonnes per year)
– The vessel’s total annual consumption of bunkered fuel (Y thousand tonnes per year)
CALCULATION MODELS
In 2024, a vessel with a GT of 50,000 bunkered X thousand tonnes of fossil-free fuel in Gothenburg. The vessel’s 2023 bunker consumption totals Y thousand tonnes. If X/Y is > 0.3 a discount of 10 per cent of paid-in port dues is repaid.
The number of port calls during the year × 50,000 GT × current port dues (price/GT) × 0.1 = Retroactive discount.
ENVIRONMENTAL DISCOUNTS
The discount applies if the vessel is certified according to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/91.
