Biofuels 

The maritime industry is experiencing a significant shift towards lowering its carbon emissions, driven by the International Maritime Organization’s ambitious targets, the Fuel EU Maritime regulation, the EU ETS and other regulations.

The majority of the vessels on water today run on conventional fuels and those vessels will be with us for many more years. Using biofuels is one of the best options for these vessels to lower emissions and comply with regulations and ESG targets. 

 

Advantages:

  • Drop-in fuel that can be used in existing ship engines
  • Successfully tested by shipping companies and bunker suppliers
  • Part of ISO 8217:2024 specification & accepted by IMO in blends up to B100
  • Pathway to IMO and FuelEU Maritime compliance
  • A long-term viable solution as pilot fuel
  • Supports customers in meeting their ESG objectives and enables financing tied to IMO targets

Transitioning to Biofuels on Board: Technical Considerations

In response to the European Union’s latest legislative measures and the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) ambitious target to slash carbon intensity by 40% within the global shipping fleet by 2030, shipping companies are under pressure to decrease their emissions. The maritime sector is embarking on a transformative journey where the use of alternative fuels will be crucial for their operation and compliance.  

This webinar was designed to unpack the technical aspects of biofuels, providing clarity on their composition, considerations when procuring blends, and the nuances of storage and handling.
