Capacity building of managers and technicians of the Tunisian Navigation Company (CTN) as well as national energy auditors and maritime transport stakeholders in terms of energy transition and the effect of GHG emissions on the climate

Deadline: 23 June 2025

 

Founded in 1959, the Compagnie Tunisienne de Navigation (CTN) is Tunisia’s national maritime transport company and a leading operator in passenger and vehicle transport between La Goulette and the ports of Genoa and Marseille. CTN also handles freight transport (trailers and containers) on regular routes to various Mediterranean ports and offers services such as tramping, ship consignment, and representation of foreign shipowners in Tunisian ports.

As one of the Mediterranean's pioneering shipping companies, CTN operates under certified safety and environmental standards. Given that fuel accounts for around 60% of the cost of a car ferry trip and significantly impacts the environment through emissions, CTN aims to enhance its fleet’s energy performance, identify savings opportunities, and implement behavioral, technical, or organizational measures to cut costs and minimize its ecological footprint in line with EU and IMO regulations. Some of the expected outputs are:

  • Mapping of the maritime sector in Tunisia and its decarbonization and energy management activities;
  • Development of a Decarbonization Strategy for the Maritime Sector in Tunisia;
  • Preparation and implementation of capacity building in audit and energy management;
