EMISSIONS: Alternative Marine Fuels Set To Accelerate After 2030

Sep-10 12:35

{2Q} EMIThe adoption of low-carbon marine fuels will accelerate after 2030 amid tighter climate regulations, Maersk Oil Trading CEO Emma Mazhari said.

  • She said that the 2030–2040 period will mark a real volume shift to low-carbon fuels, with EU ETS and fuel standards already boosting supply in Europe.
  • Tata NYK Shipping noted regardless of geopolitical volatility, decarbonisation needs to be a priority.
  • Mitsui O.S.K. Lines CEO Takeshi Hashimoto said shipping firms will initially focus on LNG and methanol, while also exploring wind-assisted propulsion, before scaling green ammonia, green methanol, and biomethane.
  • The verified maritime emissions under EU ETS in 2024 was at 72mn tonnes, accounting for 6% of the total verified emissions.
