Biofuels for sustainable shipping

Today, the shipping industry is one of the fastest-growing sources of CO2 emissions. If we don’t act, it is projected to account for 17% of global CO2 emissions by 2050. Sailing on biofuels has an immediate impact on shipping emissions.

FAQ about Sustainable Shipping

How many tonnes of fuel does GoodFuels sell, annually?

It’s hard to put an exact number on it. Our best-selling biofuel recipe is GoodFuels MR1-100. This fuel allows for 90% CO2 reduction and is widely renowned for its outstanding product quality and drop-in aspects, supported by leading OEM’s. It has made us the world market leader in sustainable marine biofuel and can be regarded as of the key drivers behind the staggering growth of the global marine biofuel industry.

Where do deliveries take place, globally?
We bunker clients on a wide variety of locations. In 2021, we did our first significant volumes in some key international markets – and in February 2022, we announced the opening of GoodFuels Singapore, the first GoodFuels office outside of Europe.
What is the GoodShipping Program?

GoodFuels introduced the award-winning GoodShipping Program in 2017. The program evolved into a separate company in 2018 and is the worlds’ first sustainable shipping initiative that offers companies – worldwide and of all sizes – the opportunity to make container shipments less polluting by offering a way to change the fuel mix. With lighthouse clients such IKEA, Heineken, and Tony Chocolonely, GoodShipping empowers freight owners to take control over their transport emissions. By enabling freight owners to indirectly choose biofuels for their shipments, GoodShipping accelerates the change of the marine fuel mix from dirty fossil fuels to sustainable low carbon biofuels.
