DNV says industry must be “realistic” about Zero-carbon fuels
Class society DNV says that ammonia is the most likely zero-carbon fuel but that it is unlikely to be produced in sufficient quantities to meet the requirements of the shipping industry by 2030.
Speaking on Container News TV’s One-to-One, DNV’s container shipping business development manager Jan-Olaf Probst discussed the decarbonisation of deepsea shipping. He argued that in order to meet the 2030 International Maritime Organization (IMO) target of 30% reduction in carbon emissions, using 2008...
