ClassNK participates in GHG data council

The Global Ro-Ro Community, whose participants include Ro-Ro carriers and other stakeholders covering approximately 80% of the transport capacity of the global car carrier fleet, has established the GRC Council as the formal governing body responsible for the operation and ongoing development of the GRC framework. ClassNK has contributed to the establishment of the GRCC through participation in the development of its Governance Framework and data handling rules, and has been involved as an independent verifier since the GRC’s inception. The formal governance framework provides a structured environment for the continuous review and improvement of emissions accounting methodologies and data handling rules, strengthening the foundation on which Ro-Ro carriers, cargo owners and vehicle manufacturers can rely for transparent and consistent GHG emissions data. This is expected to advance emissions management and decarbonisation efforts across the supply chain more effectively, while the continuous improvement of internationally aligned accounting methodologies will enhance environmental information transparency and promote industry-wide decarbonisation.
