Question 6291 — energy and fuels

Summary

Mr. Saïd Ahamada questions the Minister of Economy and Finance on the implementation of measure no. 18 of the last interministerial committee for the sea (CIMER) which was held on November 17, 2017. Indeed, this provides for support from the State to support port, maritime and industrial players, in their transition to motorization with liquefied natural gas (LNG), to fight more effectively against maritime pollution. So, During his speech at the Maritime Economy Conference on November 21, 2017, the Prime Minister instructed the Ministry of the Economy and Finance to study ways of revising the terms of amortization of investments concerning the purchase of new ships or propulsion methods, in order to encourage shipowners to use LNG more. Thus, in response to an oral question on February 20, 2018, Ms. Brune Poirson, Secretary of State to the Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, indicated that “work on revising the depreciation arrangements for ships has been launched to respond to the need to promote the renewal of the fleet. They must be finalized in the coming weeks to find their place in the finance bill (PLF) for 2019. This is a government priority.” Therefore, he asks her to kindly present the first financial or fiscal avenues envisaged by the Government, through the PLF for 2019, to encourage investments by shipowners in LNG technology.
