In Singapore, Singapore Business Review reported that the Coastal Sustainability Alliance (CSA) is investing up to $10 million in efforts to develop and increase adoption of maritime biofuel in Singapore.
The report noted that two alliance members, Green COP and Ken Energy, will lead the partnership, and have inked a memorandum of understanding on 16 April during the Singapore Maritime Week 2024.
The program “aims to develop stable B30, B40, and B50 biofuel blends and achieve production and commercial adoption of up to 50% (B50), derived from 50% agri-waste to Biobutanol – a blend poised to significantly reduce carbon emissions in maritime operations,” CSA said.
The process will include biofuel certification, commencing sea trials, building a production plant by 2025, and launching commercial-scale production by 2026, the report added.
