The partnership marks a “pivotal step” toward making green e-methanol more accessible and commercially viable for the maritime industry.
“Solving the climate emergency and decarbonizing our customers’ supply chains is a strategic imperative for Maersk,” said CEO Soren Skou.
The six companies plan to produce at least 730,000 metric tons of green methanol by the end of 2025.
Maersk is becoming an integrated logistics goliath with the ability to provide freight management, transportation, warehousing and e-commerce fulfillment for big retailers and manufacturers.
Captured carbon dioxide and green hydrogen are combined to make e-methanol. Sweden-based Liquid Wind has big plans for this alternative shipping fuel.
Can collecting carbon dioxide from ambient air combined with renewable energy create a cost-competitive, scalable, carbon-neutral fuel? Maersk is betting on it.
Maersk is adding bio-methanol to its portfolio of green marine fuels after making e-methanol and methanol-powered vessel agreements in August.
With their recycling, shipping, offshore and supply chain expertise, Coca-Cola and Maersk are helping The Ocean Cleanup rid the oceans of plastic pollution around the world.
The world’s largest shipping line says it has changed its ways and is no longer playing the spot market, instead going steady with long-term partners.
“American customers will be able to choose to transport their goods using LNG, a new technology that helps to preserve air quality by eliminating almost all atmospheric pollutants,” said CMA CGM CEO Rodolphe Saadé.
