Methane slip from ships back in the focus

Likely grabbing the most headlines is an 80-page report from the Washington DC-based International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) which claims real-world methane emissions from LNG-fuelled ships are higher than current regulations assume. Policymakers have been urged to consider increasing the default methane slip value to at least 6% for the most common LNG engine

Collaborative project on heavy-duty hydrogen transportation

Air Products, Schenk Tanktransport and TNO are collaborating on the Clean Hydrogen and Road Transport Project (CH2aRT), focused on developing heavy-duty hydrogen trucks and a public hydrogen refueling station. Subsidized by the Demonstration Scheme for Climate Technologies and Innovations in Transport of the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, the project will create the

Study at sea on methane slip commences

A new joint project will use onboard techniques and drones to measure methane emissions from ships. The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) is leading the project called FUgitive Methane Emissions from Ships (FUMES), in collaboration with Danish-based Explicit and the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO). Using in-stack continuous emissions monitoring, drones, and

Port of Rotterdam Authority and BigMile make transport emissions transparent

Port of Rotterdam Authority and BigMile are developing a digital platform to identify transport-related emissions in the port. Data, including from AIS, a system that registers all vessel movements, is combined with a TNO calculation model, enabling a precise calculation of transport sector emissions. The platform also provides insight into emissions at a business location,
