Svitzer trialing B100 in tugs using Caterpillar engines in the Netherlands

April 13, 2023 |

In the Netherlands, Riviera Marine Media reports that Svitzer is collaborating on European biofuel pilots, using 100% biodiesel in tugs operating in the Netherlands. The tugs have Caterpillar engines. The results from the trials will be compared to the recently concluded two-year trial using HVO in tugs in the UK. More than 50 tugs in the UK have participated in the HVO trial that launched in London in 2021. Results from the trials will help Svitzer decide which is the best way to decarbonize its fleet.
