MOL begins trial voyages of coal carrier using biofuel
On 26 June, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) announced it refueled its coal carrier HOKULINK with ISCC-EU certified B30 biofuel at Yeosu Port, South Korea and began technical trial voyages.
According to the statement, the biofuel used for this refueling is ISCC-EU (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) certified and is a blend of 30% organic resources derived from living organisms (biomass), such as waste cooking oil and mineral oil (B30).
It is expected to reduce CO2 emissions during navigation by approximately 30% compared to conventional fossil fuels.
This marks the first use of B30 in a technical trial navigation by a Japanese electric power company.
