Description
The maritime industry set a goal to transition to net-zero emission fuels by 2050. This transformation requires coordination among all aspects of the shipping supply chain including feedstock supply, alternative fuel production, ship and engine manufacturers, port management, safety implementation, and government regulation. One of the largest and most nuanced discussions around emissions reduction is which alternative fuel(s) to utilize, which have primarily included biofuels (biodiesel, renewable diesel, bio-intermediates/residuals), renewable natural gas (RNG), methanol, hydrogen, and ammonia. Each fuel comes with its own set of regionally-sensitive advantages and disadvantages. This has made selection of future fuels extremely difficult and is one reason why the Mission Innovation: Zero Emission Shipping Mission (ZESM), which the United States co-leads with Norway, Denmark, the Global Maritime Forum, and the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping, was formed.To date, the ZESM created and published our Industry Road Map and Action Plan. The purpose of this RFI is to understand the maritime industry’s current alternative fuels trajectory, the driving forces behind it, and the key barriers to achieving this transition to ensure the current ZESM Industry Road Map and Action Plan still align. ZESM co-lead, the Global Maritime Forum recently released the results of a 2022 survey, titled “The shipping industry’s fuel choices on the path to net zero”, which focused on shippers and a subset of alternative fuels. This RFI intends to supplement this survey and is an attempt to aggregate knowledge from stakeholders to help direct actions regarding future fuels. This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA).Responses to this RFI must be submitted electronically to ZESM@ee.doe.gov no later than 5:00pm (ET) on July 14th, 2023.
