Given the absolute importance of alternative fuels for our industry as well as for other sectors across civil society to achieve decarbonization, we all need to work together to increase their availability at scale. Our purchase of bio-LNG will send a clear and meaningful signal to the market that there is demand from cruise lines and the broader maritime industry for cleaner fuels, but we need governments, producers and end-users to collaborate and scale up the availability of these much-needed and new sources of power,\u201d Vago stated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The MSC Euribia\u2019s net-zero cruise will use bio-LNG utilizing a mass-balance system, essentially the most eco-friendly approach of delivering the advantages of renewable biogas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ship\u2019s provide chain shall be compliant with the European Union\u2019s Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) and all bio-LNG produced has been licensed by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The zero-emissions cruise is supported by the Nordic biogas firm Gasum.

We are committed to this transition and putting in place everything we can do to facilitate it. It cannot be done without alternative fuels such as bio-LNG, e-LNG, green hydrogen or green methanol being made widely available at scale to fully realize the vision of net zero cruising.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] The new MSC Euribia will sail the business\u2019s first web zero greenhouse fuel emissions cruise subsequent week, in keeping with an announcement.
