Wednesday, January 22, 2025, 00:10 (GMT + 9)

The Energy Transition Partnership for EU Fisheries and Aquaculture is pleased to announce the appointment of 10 support group coordinators to help drive progress towards a more sustainable and low-carbon fishing and aquaculture sector.  

The support group coordinators will play a critical role in: 

  • facilitating the exchange of inputs, recommendations, and best practices within the sector, through working groups; and 
  • providing recommendations to develop a roadmap for climate neutrality in the sector by 2050.

The support group is an advisory and consultative body addressing key challenges across the fisheries and aquaculture sectors impacted by the energy transition. To ensure all voices and concerns are heard, the coordinators represent various industries from fisheries to ports.

Discover who the coordinators are

  • Fisheries: 
  1. Small-Scale Coastal Fisheries (SSCF): Marta Cavallé, Executive Secretary of the Low Impact Fishers of Europe (LIFE). 
  2. Large-Scale Fisheries (LSF): Jules Danto, policy officer at European Association of Fish Producers Organisations (EAPO). 
  3. Distant Water Fleet (DWF): Mati Sarevet, Member of the Management Board at Reyktal Ltd.

The work of the support group will be crucial in supporting the sectors to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and transition to a more sustainable and low-carbon economy. 

Background 

The Energy Transition Partnership for Fisheries and Aquaculture is an initiative of the European Commission that was presented in 2023 in the oceans and fisheries package and aimed at addressing the GHG emissions and energy challenges facing the fisheries and aquaculture sector. The partnership brings together industry stakeholders, national and regional public authorities, and international organisations to share knowledge, best practices, and innovative solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve energy efficiency in the fishing and aquaculture sector.
