Danish shipping giant AP Moller-Maersk will “leapfrog” transition fuels and move directly to net-zero fuels such as ammonia and methanol, according to chief executive Soren Skou.
The world’s largest container liner operator has deselected several fuels including LNG and biomethane, and will focus on alternative fuels as it intensifies its decarbonisation efforts.
“I strongly believe that we, as an industry leader with the resources available to us, have an obligation to do all we can to get to a carbon-neutral fleet as fast as possible,” Skou wrote in the company's 2020 Sustainability Report.
