Bio-LNG fuel is an alternative to LNG that is produced from livestock excrement, food residue, and other organic waste. It has been confirmed that the GHG emissions from the entire product lifecycle, from the manufacturing to the consumption of the fuel, are lower than the emissions from traditional fuels, and it can be used as-is in existing LNG-fuelled vessels, making it very useful. Taking advantage of this characteristic, ‘K’ LINE expects to use it in its existing LNG-fuelled car carriers.
The bio-LNG that ‘K’ LINE is now using is ISCC-EU certified, ensuring a degree of sustainability that is in compliance with the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED). By proactively adopting internationally certified fuels like this, ‘K’ LINE will help decarbonise entire supply chains in collaboration with cargo owners and other stakeholders.
