Ships and heavy goods vehicles both enter the question of whether cleaner engines could spread across transport sectors. The IMO's remit covers maritime transport, while other organizations address other forms of transport. Lower fuel use is also connected with lower operating costs, giving ship operators a reason to adopt more efficient engines. Ports or local authorities could set their own entry standards when managing emissions. A common international standard would avoid the complexity of complying with different requirements at different destinations.

IMO remit, operating costs, and possible local port standards
The exchange connects the IMO's maritime remit and fuel efficiency with the possibility of differing emissions requirements at individual ports.
