Svenska tankrederiet Furetank går nu före i utvecklingen, sänker de egna utsläppen till en bråkdel genom biogasdrift och startar ett dotterbolag som ska hjälpa fler rederier handla med utsläppsminskningar. Så vill man bidra till att accelerera omställningen till en fossilfri sjöfart. https://www.mynewsdesk.com/furetank/pressreleases/furetank-startar-bolag-foer-handel-med-utslaeppsminskningar-i-sjoefarten-3401563?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=Subscription&utm_content=current_news https://www.mynewsdesk.com/furetank/pressreleases/furetank-startar-bolag-foer-handel-med-utslaeppsminskningar-i-sjoefarten-3401563?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=Subscription&utm_content=current_news Furetank Rederi Aktiebolag Fri, 29 Aug 2025 05:47:28 +0000 Furetank is now taking a crucial step towards fossil freedom, operating its EU-based fleet on biogas.
