A ratio of 30% Bio-LNG in trucks would enable a further reduction by 20%. At present, the entire German transport sector produces some 166 million tonnes of greenhouse gases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe see large potential for LNG in shipping, particularly for container ships with their relatively high fuel consumption due to high power demand. On the other hand, passenger ships have a more pioneering role. Replacing heavy fuel oil by LNG could result in significant emission advantages,\u201d says Shell\u2019s Chief Economist in Germany, Dr. J\u00f6rg Adolf.<\/p>\n<p>The International Energy Agency (IEA) anticipates that international gas trade will increase by two thirds until 2040; and LNG will cover more than 80% of this growth. While LNG represents some 8 to 9% of today\u2019s gas consumption, this share would grow to some14% by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>In road transport LNG is primarily suitable for use in heavy duty vehicles (HDVs). Projecting today\u2019s trends until 2040, the number of such vehicles in the EU will increase by 307,000 to 2,76 million. 480,000 (17%) of these HDVs would have an LNG engine and substitute the consumption of 11.5 billion litres of diesel. Today there are approximately 4,000 LNG trucks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has a significant potential to diversify transport fuel supply and reduce greenhouse gas emissions of ships and heavy-duty trucks, according to the Shell study released in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5186,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-member-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
