Destination Gotland Uses BioLNG for Summer Sailings

By 2026 Newsletter week 26

Destination Gotland has bunkered BioLNG for the first time, using the renewable fuel on its ferry services ahead of the summer season and Almedalen Week.

The Swedish-produced BioLNG is supplied by St1 Biokraft and bunkered in the Port of Visby in cooperation with Avenir. While the availability of Swedish BioLNG remains limited, Destination Gotland says the initiative marks another step in its long-term strategy to reduce emissions from its Baltic ferry operations.

Baleària Introduces Regular Use of BioLNG

By 2025 Newsletter week 40
  • Since September, MARGARITA SALAS, ABEL MATUTES and RUSADIR run exclusively on renewable bioGNL.
  • Baleària sourced 132 GWh of bioLNG, enough for carbon-neutral sailing until December 2025.
  • This represents 13% of the LNG consumed by the fleet in 2024.
  • The use of bioGNL between September and December avoids 80,300 tonnes of CO₂ – equivalent to removing 153,500 cars from the road or planting 160,650 trees.
  • BioLNG is produced from livestock waste, capturing methane and converting it into energy, with GHG savings above 200% compared to fossil fuels.
  • Baleària is the first European ferry operator to receive ISCC EU certification, guaranteeing traceability and sustainability of biofuels.
  • The certification strengthens Baleària’s position as a pioneer in maritime decarbonisation.
