How to price biofuels in 2025 and prove their sustainability
Recorded Live at ARACON 2024
FuelEU Maritime has been described as a “fuel switching regulation” because, once it comes into force, the tables will turn and burning biofuels will finally become cheaper than burning the conventional fuel and paying the fine.
In this 8-minute clip recorded in front of a live audience in Rotterdam, ENGINE’s Managing Editor, Erik Hoffmann, succinctly illustrates the economic impact of the regulation and shows a little known trick on how shipowners can make the most out of their compliance.
Agenda:
- Three ways to approach FuelEU Maritime
- Has it made sense to switch to biofuels in 2024 based on bunker prices and EU ETS?
- Will it make sense to switch to biofuels in 2025 based on bunker prices, EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime?
- The problem with documenting biofuel sustainability in both the Netherlands and the EU, and how it can be fixed
