Norden moving forward with third biofuel trial in hopes of offering to clients in 2021

In Norway, NORDEN is moving forward on its ambition to offer biofuel to customers as a green transportation option, carrying out a third test voyage using a biofuel. The test will take place over the next few days as NORD BISCAY sails towards the Black Sea, propelled solely on the biofuel made from waste vegetable oil.

Depending on the outcome, NORDEN could be ready to offer biofuel to customers by next year. The development would be a significant boost to NORDEN’s journey to cut carbon emissions. If just 10 NORDEN vessels switched to biofuel, this would equate to a CO2 reduction of 150,000 metric tons per year, or 4% of total emissions.
