Study to look at the technical and operational efficiency of the current fleet. This study aims to build up a detailed profile of the different sectors and scenario test to see how the industry would cope with economic shocks, like the impacts of climate change and rising fuel prices. The main objective of this study is to provide accurate baseline data on CO2 emissions of the Irish seafood sector. The study also aims to compare this baseline data with similar fleets globally. Based on the baseline information generated a suite of indicators that can be used to monitor emissions overtime will be developed. Life cycle assessments for two key species for Ireland will be completed to assess the environmental impacts associated with all the stages of seafood production. These will be compared with life cycle assessments for other food industries. The project also aims to develop a predictive model to assist and measuring the impacts of possible mitigation measures.
