Hydrogen (LH2), be it blue, or green, is at the heart of the energy transition talks taking place around the globe, especially as major economies of the world pledge to become net-zero nations. Building up the hydrogen society has been a hot potato for decades and the switch from coal, fossil fuels,
A fusion-powered container vessel offers potential for lower transport cost, faster service, and zero emissions to air, DNV said in its Technology Progress Report on key energy systems technologies aimed at meeting global decarbonization targets. One of those technologies includes nuclear power, whi
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted efficiency measures to reduce carbon intensity from ships, targeting a 1.5 % annual ship CO2 intensity cut between 2023-2026. The measures are expected to result in an estimated 11% improvement by 2026 compared to 2019 levels and will take th
Kanfer Shipping AS, a Norway-based shipping company focusing on small-scale LNG and LNG bunkering, and Australia’s Oceania Marine Energy have signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to build an ammonia-ready LNG bunkering vessel. The two companies said the vessel was part of their strategy to develop a long
The European Council has approved an extension of the Danish scheme for reduced tax charges for shore power for ships until June 2027. The scheme, which was due to expire in June this year, is being extended amid considerable backing from Danish shipping companies. The extension of the scheme for on
In an effort to reduce its main haul carbon emissions, DHL Global Forwarding, the air and ocean freight specialist of Deutsche Post DHL Group, has launched a new offer based on the use of sustainable marine fuels.
Several people were injured after a Greenpeace activist, protesting against oil, parachuted into the Allianz Arena in Munich before a football match in EURO 2020.
Equinor is accelerating its energy transition with plans to produce less oil and gas and increase investments in renewables.
The European Hydrogen Backbone (EHB) initiative’s new study has shown that sufficient potential exists to produce green and blue hydrogen for the future EU and UK energy demand.
Singapore’s Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) has joined a study with Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) to explore the use of ammonia as an alternative marine fuel. The joint study will cover green ammonia production and supply, ammonia bunkering process, and potential issues
The Montreal Port Authority (MPA) has signed a cooperation and development agreement with Greenfield Global, which specializes in the production of biofuels, to implement green energy solutions. Under the deal, the duo aims to develop and commercialize green hydrogen, ethanol, and green methanol for
Fenix Marine Services (FMS) is transitioning its fleet of over 300 pieces of container handling equipment from fossil-based diesel fuel to renewable diesel fuel, effective immediately.
No stone is left unturned when it comes to options for reducing carbon emissions, including electrification of oil and gas assets, carbon capture usage and storage, replacing fossil with renewable sources of energy and introducing alternative fuels like hydrogen and ammonia.
Norwegian engineering company TECO 2030 has urged the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to recognize the role carbon capture will play in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from international shipping, as not enough vessels will undergo fuel switches to meet the climate targets.
