Here’s how bio-LNG, a renewable form of liquefied natural gas (LNG), offers an effective solution for decarbonisation while driving operational efficiency in shipping and road freight. 💨 What is Bio-LNG? Bio-LNG is a renewable form of LNG. Renewable natural gas, also known as biomethane, results from the purification of biogas. Biogas is a renewable energy made from the process of bacteria breaking down natural waste such as food scraps, manure or plant material. This process is known as anaerobic digestion. It transforms waste products into a viable low-carbon fuel that (with its high energy density) helps hard-to-abate sectors that rely on long-distance transportation to meet their decarbonisation goals. ♻ How can bio-LNG support decarbonisation? ✔️ Offers less life cycle CO2e [1] emissions compared to conventional diesel [2] ✔️ Compatible with existing LNG infrastructure and engines ✔️ Enables circularity by transforming waste into energy 🔁 How Shell is delivering for hard-to-abate sectors ✔️ Shell has the largest marine LNG bunkering network in the world, with the capability to supply bio-LNG across many locations in Europe and the United States. ✔️ Shell is already working with heavy-duty road transport fleets like Dutch logistics firm Koeltrans to help them make the switch to bio-LNG.

[2] Product life cycle CO2e emissions are associated with the production and use of a specific product, from well to wheel, including emissions from feedstock production and collection, processing, storage, transport, distribution and combustion.
