Year-over-Year Comparison

Setting up baseline and comparison years

Updated over 2 years ago

The Year-over-Year Comparison page allows you to benchmark and track the progress of emission reduction targets in your port.

At the top of the page, you can specify the baseline year and up to three comparison years.

You can only view this page when emissions data for more than one year is available.

Vessel Statistics – year over year

The Vessel Statistics section highlights the year-over-year change in vessel calls, distinct vessel count, and tugboat jobs at the port for the selected years.

Emission Targets

Configure emission types for your port

MEP is configured by default to measure and report on six emission types: CO2, NOx, SOx, PM2.5, PM10, VOCs.

Click on the ‘Add a new emission type’ button on the Emission Targets page to add up to eight additional emission types to the list.

Configuring emission targets for a reporting period

On the Emission Targets page, you can define emission targets for each reporting period that your port has data for.

These targets are used in the Dashboard and Insights to determine if emission levels are acceptable (green), marginally high (amber) or high (red). If no target is set, then a neutral grey is used.

  1. Select the reporting period for which you want to set emission targets.

2. For each emission type, you can define the emission target (in kg/hour), Targets can be set at a vessel type level, or at a more granular DWT level.

3. Based on the target settings entered, the red/amber/green colour code guide is followed when showing emission results on the Dashboard and Insights pages:

Absolute and relative targets

Emission targets can be set in two ways:

  1. Absolute: Enables you to set targets manually and freely for each emission type at a vessel type or DWT granularity level.

  2. Relative: You specify the % improvement desired over a baseline year, and the system automatically sets the targets for the specified year.
