Don't forget to submit you Monitoring Plans by the 1st of June, 2024 |
|
|
|
This is a reminder to submit your monitoring plan. When monitoring plans are submitted by shipping companies before the 1st of June 2024 the NEa will not take any legal action to the delayed submission.
As NEa already received more than 700 monitoring plans, we expect shipping companies to submit their verified monitoring plans via THETIS-MRV by the 1st of June 2024. When a monitoring plan is not submitted before this date, the NEa may take enforcement actions. The nature of these actions will depend on the specific circumstances of the case.
Please be advised that the shipping company responsible for handing in the Monitoring Plan also has the responsibility to open a Maritime Operator Holding Account (MOHA). With the MOHA the shipping company is able to surrender its emission allowances. If you have not already done so, please apply for a MOHA via this link (in the form select MOHA).

Role of the NEa in approving Monitoring Plans |
|
|
|
Due to the revision of the MRV Regulation (EU) 2015/757), administering authorities now have to approve monitoring plans. This is an extra step compared to the previous version of the MRV (before 1/1/2024). The Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa) is the administering authority for shipping companies attributed to the Netherlands. The NEa will check whether the monitoring plans contain all elements the Regulation calls for, and whether these elements meet the requirements. This means that we may ask to add to or modify a monitoring plan, even when it has been assessed as satisfactory by an accredited verifier. In this way, we ensure that all monitoring plans comply with the Regulation.
