Was ist der Umweltbeitrag?

Im Einklang mit dem Ziel, die Schifffahrtsindustrie umweltfreundlicher zu gestalten und schädliche Luftemissionen zu reduzieren, hat die Internationale Seeschifffahrtsorganisation (IMO - die Regulierungsbehörde für den internationalen Seeverkehr) den 1. Januar 2020 als Termin festgelegt für die Umsetzung der EU-Richtlinie EU 2016/802. Diese verlangt eine deutliche Verringerung des Schwefelgehaltes in dem von Schiffen verwendeten Heizöl. Die neue Obergrenze von 0,5 % Schwefel im Kraftstoff oder gleichwertigen Lösungen wird ab dem 1. Januar 2020 für alle Fährbetreiber höhere Kosten im Rahmen der Einhaltung der Vorschriften bedeuten. Es wird erwartet, dass der Rückgang der Schwefeldioxid-Emissionen infolge des niedrigeren globalen Schwefelgrenzwertes erhebliche positive Auswirkungen auf die Umwelt und die menschliche Gesundheit haben wird.

Irish Ferries hat dementsprechend eine Gebühr für einen Umweltbeitrag eingeführt. Diese deckt einen Teil der Kosten ab, die anfallen für die Einhaltung der oben genannten 2020 Richtlinie zur Verringerung des Schwefelgehaltes. Die Gebühr ist ein Pauschalbetrag pro Person und Fahrt.

• Erwachsene(r) - € 6,00
• Kind (4-15 Jahre) - € 3,00
• Fahrzeug (einschließlich Motorrad) - €25,00
