🚚 Watch the video below as we stop in Berlin for the first stage of our BioLNG Tour, where IVECO’s S-Way truck makes a pit stop at our Shell LNG station in Mittenwalde to fuel up. But why is bioLNG such an important solution for road transport – and why now? As there is no silver bullet for achieving #decarbonisation in the commercial road transport space, Shell is exploring a mosaic of solutions – of which, #BioLNG is an important one. Ready to be used today, bioLNG can result in up to 100% CO2e reductions, without compromising vehicle performance. A much-needed impact given that road freight is responsible for more than 19% of the European transport sector’s greenhouse gas emissions*. However, this potential will not be realised by one company alone. Which is why Shell and IVECO have teamed up for this tour to show how collaboration is needed throughout the value chain. In our latest video, Mattia Maritati, Andrea Thome van der Togt and Sönke Kleymann unpack this shared decarbonisation vision. Stay tuned for the next stage, coming soon, and check out the full video for more information: https://lnkd.in/enMXM9vU #RoadTransport #FollowTheLeaders *Sourced from the ICCT's "Road freight decarbonization in Europe" report: https://lnkd.in/eE3WcwiY

🚢 Great range for this fast hydrogen-powered catamaran. #HydrogenCatamaran #Norway #MaritimeTransport #Decarbonisation #EnergyEfficiency 💡 Norway is a model student in electrifying its car fleet and has been working on decarbonising its maritime transport in recent years. In addition to the electric fairy, the country is also relying heavily on hydrogen to achieve its goal. 💡 This technology offers many advantages, such as greater comfort for the 275 passengers, even in bad weather. Above all, this reduced friction translates into high energy efficiency. The companies in charge of the project, TECO 2030 and Umoe Mandal, announce a 55% reduction in the ship's consumption compared to conventional fossil fuel ships. 🔗 Source: https://bit.ly/3v11Yca .

🚛 Discover the future of Europe's heavy-duty transport through the lens of award-winning mobility journalist and consultant Don Dahlmann. In his latest article, he explores the potential of bio-LNG in reducing emissions for the commercial road transport sector. In a collaborative initiative last year, IVECO and Shell Commercial Road Transport had the opportunity to work with Don on a bio-LNG tour, sharing insights into how the solution works and its potential as an immediate solution for reducing CO₂ emissions. Don sheds light on bio-LNG's potential to reduce heavy-duty trucking emissions and its potential to develop a more sustainable transport network in Europe. Bio-LNG may be the underestimated opportunity for fleets, but it's promising to see industry leaders and expert voices taking note of its potential so progress can be made to drive the industry towards a cleaner tomorrow.

The future is electric ⚡ From 2035, new cars within the EU may no longer emit CO2. How do we build a future-proof e-mobility ecosystem in Europe? And how do we employ this as efficiently as possible?   These questions will be central during the international AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility Conference on September 26 and 27 in Utrecht. And TotalEnergies is part of it 👇   Stefan Evers delivers a keynote on “Dynamic Pricing” and participates in Louis Lépinau's roundtable on “Resilient Energy Infrastructures”.   My colleagues look forward to seeing you at the conference.

Nordic Electrofuel joins forces with Societe Generale for fundraising to build e-SAF facility in Norway! The aviation industry’s transition to sustainable fuels is gaining momentum, and one trailblazing project at the forefront is Nordic Electrofuel’s e-SAF plant in Norway. With commissioning scheduled for 2026, this pilot facility will produce synthetic sustainable aviation fuels (e-fuels) using power-to-liquid technology, significantly reducing aviation’s CO2 footprint. What makes this project unique is the collaborative equity financing behind it. Advised by Societe Generale, Nordic Electrofuel aims to raise capital not only from financial investors but also from aviation companies, including airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and airports. This collaborative approach is essential for scaling e-fuel technologies and moving from lab experiments to commercial production. With aviation responsible for a significant share of global CO2 emissions, such cooperative efforts are crucial in achieving net-zero air travel. The EU Innovation Fund has also granted 40 million euros to support this groundbreaking initiative. Additionally, Nordic Electrofuel has recently reached a milestone by signing a term sheet with P2X-Europe GmbH & Co. KG Europe, a joint venture of Mabanaft and H&R Group, formalizing their cooperation in the production and commercialization of synthetic fuels, with a focus on electricity-generated sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF). Special Thanks to Vincent Caufourier & team for enabling us to decarbonize aviation!

All-in-all, great conference. Amazingly qualified participants, super lively and engaging panel session today, got lots of smart well-grounded questions from the audience yesterday after my presentation and today after the panel discussion. Possibly most relevant for me: lots learned about PtX projects: logistics, location, funding & and banking, hurdles for operators, suppliers and funders!

Rotterdam The Hague Airport and the Port of Rotterdam Authority have signed a letter of intent to collaborate on developing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and hydrogen fuel supply chains. This strategic partnership aims to establish innovative methods for supplying, producing, and purchasing alternative fuels, while also sharing knowledge and expertise in the area. The Port of Rotterdam highlighted the involvement of major companies like Shell, Neste, VARO Energy, UPM - The Biofore Company, and bp, all of whom have announced their intentions and begun construction of the first plants dedicated to this initiative. In addition to bio-based SAF, the future demand will include eSAF, which is based on CO2 and will further increase the need for hydrogen as a feedstock. Rotterdam The Hague Airport plans to integrate three approaches—bio-based SAF, electric battery-powered aircraft, and green hydrogen—to help decarbonize aviation. RTHA is committed to exceeding European SAF requirements and advancing hydrogen infrastructure and applications. This collaboration represents a significant step towards a more sustainable aviation industry, combining the strengths and expertise of both the airport and the port authority.
