On behalf of NOW GmbH, the Institute for Environmental Technology and Energy Economics (IUE – Institut für Umwelttechnik und Energiewirtschaft) of the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH – Technische Universität Hamburg) has conducted a study on the potential of renewable methane in Germany as a fuel for ships and heavy commercial vehicles.
Based on scenarios on the development of LNG/CNG demand in shipping and heavy goods transport as well as on the infrastructural requirements for the production of renewable methane in Germany, the study investigated the development and substitution potential as well as the resulting greenhouse gas reduction potential up to the year 2030.
During the online seminar, the study results will be presented and discussed with experts from vehicle/engine manufacturer companies, renewable methane suppliers and the scientific community.
Online seminar (in German) on 10.06.2021 (Thursday), 2:00pm – 4:30pm
