In Japan, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) announced it joined the e-NG Coalition, an international alliance that aims to accelerate the development and use of e-methane, which is synthesized from CO2 and hydrogen.
With the addition of MOL, the total number of participating companies of this alliance has increased to 20. Through its participation in the alliance, MOL will establish a stable international supply chain for next-generation fuels and accelerate its initiatives to reduce the environmental impact of the shipping industry.
The e-NG Coalition aims to achieve a carbon-neutral society through the practical application of e-methane by promoting the development of appropriate assessment criteria and systems for environmental values and strengthening collaboration among companies involved throughout the value chain.
