ESL Shipping will become the world’s first shipping company to start utilising new low-emission Neste Marine 0.1 co-processed marine fuel in its vessels in Finland and Sweden.
The ISCC PLUS certified marine fuel enables up to 80% reduced greenhouse gas emissions over the life cycle compared to fossil fuels, the fuel’s developer claims.
Neste Marine 0.1 co-processed marine fuel is currently in the piloting phase and it is produced at Neste’s refinery in Porvoo, Finland, where part of the fossil raw materials have been replaced with renewable raw materials in the conventional refining process.
The drop-in fuel can be taken in use without any fleet modifications as it has a similar composition to conventional bunker fuels.
