In today's fast-paced world, the seamless movement of equipment, machinery, and components is crucial for the success of businesses in this sector. From heavy machinery to intricate components, this sector is responsible for creating the tools and equipment that drive progress. However, the sheer size and weight of machinery, the need for specialized handling, and the needs of the supply chain make it a complex endeavor. Delays, damages, or mismanagement can lead to substantial financial losses and disrupted operations.

At JAS, we partner with a wide range of industrial and manufacturing producers, including manufacturers of industrial automation, electronic products, construction materials, and other high-value goods. Our comprehensive services encompass the entire production journey, from material sourcing to delivery of the final product.

Flight Operations Utilized for Industrial Client

JAS prides itself on the ability to make a difference for their customers. So, when an industrial sector client reached out to them about moving a 650 CBM piece of machinery from the USA to Italy, JAS was able to quickly mobilize and find the most efficient solution, in the most challenging market.

The shipment was coordinated by the JAS Como branch in Italy in cooperation with the JAS Memphis branch in the USA.

Due to its nonstandard dimensions, the shipment required five Blue World Atlantic flights from Chicago to Frankfurt. Once the cargo arrived in Frankfurt, a total of 15 trucks were used for its final delivery to the client in Italy.

JAS offers weekly flight operations on the transatlantic trade lane with predictable lead times to and from the USA and Europe. These flights provide guaranteed capacity and control and each flight offers a hub solution so transfers can be arranged to and from multiple origin and destination points.

Thanks to the collaboration of both the JAS USA and JAS Italy teams, the customers' demands were successfully met and the shipment arrived safely and on time.

The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is a regulatory framework introduced to address carbon leakage by imposing reporting requirements on importers of carbon-intensive goods, promoting transparency, incentivizing lower-emission choices, and leveling the playing field between domestically produced and imported goods.
The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM): Addressing Carbon-Intensive Goods Imported to the EU

As the European Union (EU) heightens its climate ambitions, there are increasing regulations related to "carbon leakage." This phenomenon occurs when EU-based companies shift carbon-intensive production to countries with less strict climate policies, potentially increasing emissions. To address this, the EU has introduced the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), an environmental regulation designed to establish a fair price for carbon emissions associated with the production of carbon-intensive goods entering the EU. Its purpose extends to encouraging cleaner industrial practices in non-EU countries. 

Goods Covered in the Initial Phase: 

The CBAM's scope encompasses products like cement, iron and steel, aluminum, fertilizers, electricity, and hydrogen in the transitional phase. Moreover, there are plans to evaluate the possibility of expanding the range of covered products by 2030, potentially including additional sectors. 

Impacts: 

  • Importers must carefully track and report emissions data for their imported goods. The European Commission is developing IT tools to help importers report and manage this data. 
  • Non-compliance with reporting requirements may result in financial penalties. 
  • The regulation introduces an additional layer of complexity in the import process. 

Timeline: 

As the CBAM unfolds between 2023 and 2035, it will have significant implications for industries, global competitiveness, and the fight against climate change. Here are some key dates to keep in mind: 

  • October 1, 2023: The CBAM enters its transitional phase. Importers of carbon-intensive goods begin reporting embedded greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. 
  • January 31, 2024: The first reporting period for importers concludes. Flexibility in reporting methodologies is allowed. 
  • January 1, 2025: Reporting using only the EU method becomes mandatory. 

Benefits: 

  • Importers disclosing emissions data enhances transparency about the carbon impact of goods. 
  • The regulation incentivizes importers to choose lower-emission products, driving sustainable choices. 
  • Imported goods are subject to emissions reporting similar to domestically produced goods, leveling the playing field. 
  • The regulation raises awareness about carbon emissions associated with international trade. 

How Can JAS Support You? 

  • EU Import Customs Clearance: Our team of customs experts consult you and assist you in expediting the customs clearance process and the complexity of tariff codes, duties, taxes, and international trade regulations.* 
  • EU Regulation Monitoring: We keep you informed about CBAM updates and evolving regulations, ensuring you remain compliant and adaptable to changes. 

*The importer is at all times responsible for providing all documentation related to customs clearance, including correct shipment/tariff and emission-related data. 

Including maritime emissions in the EU Emissions Trading System marks a significant shift for the maritime logistics industry.
Introduction of the EU ETS (Emission Trading System) in the Maritime Industry

As part of ongoing efforts to combat climate change, the European Union (EU) has extended the Emissions Trading System (ETS) to include CO2 emissions from all large ships entering EU ports. Starting in January 2024, this move will hold shipping companies accountable for their carbon footprint, fostering energy efficiency and incentivizing low-carbon solutions within the maritime logistics industry.

Inclusion of Maritime Emissions in the EU ETS:

In May 2023, the EU officially adopted amendments to the ETS Directive and the Regulation on the Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) for maritime transport. These amendments will integrate maritime emissions into the ETS, encompassing 50% of emissions from voyages starting or ending outside the EU and 100% of emissions between two EU ports or when ships are within EU ports. This step will apply to all large ships of 5,000 gross tonnage and above, irrespective of their flag.

Transition Period and Compliance:

To facilitate a smooth transition, shipping companies will gradually be required to surrender emission allowances for a portion of their reported emissions:

  • In 2025, they have to surrender allowances for 40% of their emissions reported in 2024.
  • In 2026, the percentage will increase to 70% for emissions reported in 2025.
  • From 2027 onwards, they must surrender allowances for 100% of their reported emissions.

Impact on the Maritime Logistics Industry:

  • Compliance Costs and Financial Implications: Companies will face extra expenses as they are now required to purchase and sell emission allowances. In order to stay within their allotted allowances, substantial capital investments will be necessary for the adoption of emission-reducing technologies and sustainable fuel alternatives.
  • Operational Adjustments: Shipping companies must optimize vessel routes, reduce idle times, and adopt slow steaming practices to align with emission reduction targets. This will require careful planning and coordination to maintain the efficiency and effectiveness of supply chain logistics.
  • Market Competitiveness and Differentiation: Companies embracing sustainable practices will gain a competitive edge as eco-conscious customers and businesses are increasingly prioritizing environmentally responsible shipping solutions.
  • Collaboration and Information Sharing: Close collaboration with authorities, port operators, and stakeholders will help ensure accurate emission reporting and progress monitoring.

Conclusion:

Including maritime emissions in the EU Emissions Trading System marks a significant shift for the maritime logistics industry. While compliance with the regulation will present challenges, it also creates opportunities for the sector to embrace sustainability, foster innovation, and collaborate effectively to contribute to a greener future.
