Does energy efficiency affect ship values in the second-hand market?

Abstract: This paper investigates whether the energy efficiency of vessels is reflected in sales prices in the second-hand market. Using unique data of nearly 1,600 sales transactions over a 21-year period, we consider a hedonic pricing framework in which we control for market conditions, vessel specifications and buyers' country of origin to identify the specific impact from energy efficiency. Using two indicators for energy efficiency, we find a negative relationship between energy efficiency and sale price with an el… Show more

“…Recent evidence from Peng et al (2020) in the secondhand market for Handysize dry bulk vessels highlighted the importance of new factors in the crosssection of vessel prices, such as design speed, main engine fuel consumption and investor domicile, investor domicile proxying cultural traits and the state of an investor's domestic economy. This evidence corroborates prior findings in the Handysize secondhand market by Adland et al (2018) who also documented the importance of fuel consumption and energy efficiency as determinants of vessel prices.…”

“…Liang FANG et al [2] studied the dynamic relationship between price and trading volume in the second-hand ship market based on the VAR-GARCH model, and concluded that there is a unilateral causal relationship between past trading volume and volatility in the return rate of all second-hand ship markets. Roar Adland [3]explored whether energy efficiency will affect the value of ships in the second-hand market, concluded that there was a negative correlation between energy efficiency and sales prices, with an elastic value of around 0.4, indicated that the actual operating energy efficiency depends on the speed of ships. Lim S S [4] used artificial neural network models outperform simple stepwise regression analysis and satisfied both statistical soundness and accuracy of results inscientific models.…”

“…The empirical results indicate that, although the non-parametric model attempts to capture non-linearity, it cannot perfectly fit real vessel prices due to other factors, such as engine type and country of the shipyard. Ådland et al . (2018) found that sale price and energy efficiency exhibit a negative relationship under the same market conditions and with identical vessel specifications.…”
