FuelEU Maritime, launching in 2025, will boost bio-LNG demand in shipping. With potential to reach 12 bcm by 2050, bio-LNG can leverage existing LNG infrastructure—but must scale fast, cut costs, and navigate policy hurdles to compete with other green fuels. This is an extract from Wood Mackenzie’s presentation at the Future of BioLNG: Europe 2025 conference (January 2025, the Netherlands).
