ECSA welcomes the communication on a new approach for a sustainable blue economy in the EU
The European Commission published yesterday its communication on a new approach for a sustainable blue economy in the EU. This communication highlights the important role of all the sectors related to oceans, including shipping, to boost the green and digital transition of the blue economy.
ECSA welcomes the publication of the communication on a new approach for a sustainable blue economy in the EU. The communication highlights the importance of the contribution of the blue economy to achieve carbon neutrality, by developing offshore renewable energy and by greening maritime transport and ports.
Met dank overgenomen van Europese Commissie (EC), gepubliceerd op maandag 17 mei 2021.
What is the blue economy and how is it contributing to the overall economy?
The blue economy encompasses all industries and sectors related to oceans, seas and coasts, whether they are based in the marine environment (e.g. shipping, fisheries, energy generation) or on land (e.g. ports, shipyards, land-based aquaculture and algae production, coastal tourism).
It is a broad, fast-moving segment of our economy, where over the past decade significant steps have been taken to modernise and diversify. Alongside traditional sectors, innovative sectors are evolving and growing - such as ocean renewable energy, blue bio-economy, bio-technology and desalination - thus providing new prospects and creating jobs. The blue economy is also connected to the on-land economy through a web of spin-offs and supply chains.

Welcoming the new Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy published today by the European Commission, ECSA, underlines the importance of maintaining and improving the competitiveness of the sector as the prerequisite to attaining the ambitions set in the document.
“Sustainable, connected and resilient European transport sectors are key to maintaining the global position of the European economy,” says Martin Dorsman, ECSA Secretary-General. “This strategy comes at the right time, as the transport and mobility sectors seek to come back stronger from the COVID-19 crisis, while delivering on the objectives of the Green Deal.”
