Setting up the biomethanol supply chain
Over the past few months, a dedicated project team has worked tirelessly to make biomethanol available as a sustainable alternative to fossil-based marine fuels. FincoEnergies has diligently adapted its entire supply chain to ensure the swift and effective provision of this innovative product. Following this logistical redesign, a comprehensive safety audit was conducted by the Port of Amsterdam, in collaboration with the Port of Rotterdam. After it could be demonstrated that all safety requirements are met, FincoEnergies was granted a permit to supply its GoodFuels-branded biomethanol in the Amsterdam port area.
“FincoEnergies is constantly looking for various sustainable energy carriers that can be used on land and water. Everything is aimed at supporting customers as optimally as possible in achieving their sustainability goals," says Daan Faber, Project Manager Business Innovation. "We see biomethanol as an effective and scalable way to reduce emissions in the maritime sector in the short term, especially when compared to alternative energy carriers such as ammonia and hydrogen. It is valuable to see that our partners share this vision. Thanks to the great collaboration with Port of Amsterdam, we can now start supplying this sustainable fuel.”
