Next generation fuels

Transport companies and refineries that provide fuel are driving advances in clean travel technologies.

Production of renewable diesel, hydrogen fuel cells, ammonia as a hydrogen-based fuel and LNG as a fuel, and the electrification of shipping are just a few of the clean travel technologies being developed. Decarbonization as a future differentiator of services is fast becoming a focus for many companies.
