Abstract
At least since we learned to admit that crude oil reserves are limited, improving en-ergy efficiency has been regarded important. Recently the climate effects of exhaust gases from combustion processes have been increasingly focused. This is underlining the importance of improving the energy efficiency in all sectors in which are cur-rently depending on the use of combustion engines, among which we find modern fisheries. The actual fishing fleet, in most cases, is not efficient because of outdated technology. Nevertheless there is no question fuel consumption in fisheries can be reduced and should be a directive of fisheries regulators.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
