Priority Area on Clean Shipping ”to become a pilot region in clean shipping”

Environmental dimension 1.First, using LNG as ship fuel will reduce Sulphur oxide (SOx) emissions, by between 90% and 95%. 2.Reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions to comply with IMO Tier III limits. 3. Compared to traditional fuels, a 20% - 25% reduction of (CO2)

Energy security Secure the supply Ensure competition Secures the investment of approx. 2. BN EUR

Blue Growth and Innovation Marine technology providers and Shipbuilding Small scale bunkering and storage solutions Improving environmental performance of port operations Utilizing the LNG cooling energy content for storage loading operations.

Building BSR LNG cluster Integrating value chains in order to enable sustainable LNG business models Providing industry the access to competence technology and markets Increase the demand of LNG securing growth of the sector
