French liner giant CMA CGM is to test out biofuel for boxships.
The company is teaming with IKEA Transport & Logistics Services, The GoodShipping Program and the Port of Rotterdam to trial the oil during a vessel bunkering on 19 March.
The "landmark" project marks a major step towards the decarbonisation of ocean freight, the companies said, using second generation biofuel derived from forest residues and waste cooking oil.
