The US West Coast to the Far East trade corridor recorded the most notable decline in emissions, and Taiwanese container shipping player Yang Ming recorded the most emission cuts for the second consecutive quarter, according to the Carbon Emissions Index (CEI). These positive improvements are largely attributed to carriers reducing speeds, which has led to fuel efficiency gains, and allowed them to accommodate for lower demand in a subdued economic climate, Xeneta analysts say. Despite this, analysts have concerns about whether carriers' commitment to reducing emissions will continue, especially when market conditions improve. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><span style=\"font-weight:700\">Europe, however, has seen a surge in its vessel emissions due to increased LNG activity: <\/span><span> A surge in LNG vessel activity in 2022 has led to a three-year high in carbon emissions from Europe's shipping sector, according to <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration-skip-ink:none;-webkit-text-decoration-skip:none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spglobal.com\/commodityinsights\/en\/market-insights\/latest-news\/energy-transition\/071423-boost-in-lng-activity-drives-up-eu-shipping-emissions-in-2022\" style=\"\">S&P Global<\/a><\/span><span>.
