The fuel will be produced at Eni’s Venice and Gela biorefineries using waste and food residues, the company said in a social media post.

Enilive said it will offer “direct refuelling” option for ships, with deliveries carried out by barge.

“With this next step, we continue to build an increasingly sustainable maritime transport network, one port at a time,” Enilive added.
