EnviTec Biogas, TT-Line sign bio-LNG bunker supply deal following bunkering trial

EnviTec Biogas on Thursday (13 November) said TT-Line signed a bio-LNG supply contract following a trial bunkering. 

Some 40 metric tonnes (mt) of bio-LNG from EnviTec Biogas was supplied to TT-Line’s Ro-Pax ferry Peter Pan in Travemünde, Germany. 

“We are delighted to be able to supply TT-Line’s Ro-Pax ferries, a combination of passenger and vehicle ships, with our renewable fuel bio-LNG,” said Markus Pille, Managing Director of EnviTec Energy GmbH & Co. KG.

Since the entry into force of the EU Regulation on the use of renewable and low-carbon fuels in maritime transport, also known as FuelEU Maritime, shipping companies such as TT-Line are required to comply with binding limits for the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used on board. The regulation applies to all ships in the EU with a gross tonnage of more than 5,000 in commercial passenger or freight transport, regardless of the flag they fly.

“Our Peter Pan, together with her sister ship Nils Holgersson, is the largest LNG-powered Ro-Pax ferry in the world. These ferries represent far more to us than merely meeting legal requirements; we are preparing ourselves and our fleet as well as possible for a sustainable future,” said Torben Nikolay, CFO of TT-Line.

“We have already carried out extensive bio-LNG bunkerings by bunker barge this year and are now pleased to have found, in EnviTec Biogas, a German partner for particularly flexible bunkering by truck.”
