Cruise Liner Emissions Reduction Incentives Project
Location: California: Port of San Francisco
EPA is providing a $100,000 grant to the Port of San Francisco, with $141,000 in matching funds. This project will enable the port to provide monetary incentives for cruise ships to burn cleaner, lower sulfur fuels while they are docked at the port. The port’s incentives will reduce the cost of the lower sulfur fuels for the cruise ships and lower their overall fees while docked in San Francisco. The project will reduce sulfur dioxide emissions by an estimated 39 tons over the course of the project.
