Quantitative sustainability assessment of e-fuels for maritime transport

In a new holistic framework to assess marine e-fuels across technological, economic, environmental and safety dimensions, e-methanol consistently outperforms marine diesel oil, and ammonia holds long-term promise if safety challenges can be overcome. Reducing the carbon intensity of maritime transport is essential to achieve global emission reduction targets. Electro-fuels (e-fuels) represent a promising cleaner alternative to conventional …
