Biofuels for Maritime Shipping:  Connecting Minnesota Agriculture to Emerging Global Fuel Markets

Join industry leaders, agricultural partners, biofuel producers, policy specialists, and transportation experts on December 16^th in Minneapolis for a timely discussion about how Minnesota’s agricultural bioeconomy could participate in emerging markets for lower-carbon maritime fuels. As the shipping industry works to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, opportunities may develop for Midwest-produced ethanol, biodiesel, bio-LNG from renewable natural gas, and hydrogen-derived fuels such as ammonia and methanol.

This one-day event will examine market opportunities, infrastructure requirements, technology pathways, and the practical challenges facing alternative marine fuels. Because these pathways differ considerably in commercial readiness, cost, emissions performance, vessel compatibility, and infrastructure needs, the discussion will address both their potential and their constraints.

Attendees will gain practical insight into how Minnesota’s agricultural and renewable energy assets could connect with evolving domestic and international maritime markets.
