Roeslein Renewables announced its support for a new national push to secure a central role for American made biofuels in the future of global maritime shipping, following the company’s decision to sign onto a joint letter organized by the ABMI.
The case for adopting lower-carbon alternative maritime shipping fuels is strong and getting stronger, according to a report released today by the NGO Energy Vision: The Future of Shipping: Cleaner Fuel Options for the Maritime Sector.
The American Biofuels Maritime Initiative, which includes members representing the ethanol and biogas industries, on April 23 sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio calling for strong U.S. leadership in IMO negotiations.
The global maritime industry's transition away from heavy fuel oil is no longer a question of if but of when — and with what fuels. The U.S. biofuels industry is exceptionally well-positioned to serve this transition in the near to medium term.
