Decarbonising waterborne transport with bio‑LNG
For the FirstBio2Shipping project, bio-based liquefied natural gas (bio-LNG) offers a way forward. The project is developing the first industrial plant capable of converting biogas into renewable, low-carbon bio‑LNG at scale and in an energy-efficient way. The bio-LNG can be used by LNG‑compatible vessels without the need for any adaptations. Used as an alternative to heavy fuel oil, the bio‑LNG produced by the project can reduce net emissions by 92 %, 87 500 tonnes of CO2 equivalent for the first 10 years of project’s operation.
