Why do shipping emissions receive far less scrutiny than aviation emissions, when both sectors cause the same amount of pollution?
While we’re on that subject, why are sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) the talk of the sustainability town, but sustainable shipping fuels are not?
After all, just like aviation, the marine industry is responsible for as much as 3% of global C02 emissions annually.
Enter AIM-listed company called Quadrise, which is deep in the development phase of its innovative sustainable shipping fuel technology. Give Quadrise chief executive Jason Miles the chance, and he’ll wax lyrical about the intricacies of crude sugar oils, methyl esters and lignin cellulose, using a clutch of acronyms you’ve probably never heard of. In layman’s terms, Quadrise is developing biofuels for the shipping industry to cut C02 emissions from 3% globally to potentially zero.
Quadrise plc (LON:QED) is an energy technology provider whose solutions enable production of cheaper, cleaner, simpler and safer alternatives to fuel oil and biofuels, proven in real world applications.
