Maersk Sees RNG, Alcohol and Ammonia as the Best-positioned Fuels to Reach Zero Net Emissions
A study by A.P. Moller - Maersk and Lloyds Register confirms that the best opportunities for decarbonizing shipping lie in finding new sustainable energy sources. Based on market projections, the best positioned fuels for research and development into net zero fuels for shipping are alcohol, biomethane, and ammonia.
Energy efficiency has been and still is an important tool for Maersk to reduce CO2 emissions. Efficiency measures have positioned Maersk 10% ahead of the industry average. But getting to net zero requires a total shift in the way deep sea vessels are propelled. The shipping industry needs to introduce carbon neutral propulsion fuels and new technologies.
