Sinobunker, a COSCO subsidiary, has completed the world’s first green ammonia bunkering operation. The operation took place at COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry’s Dalian terminal on July 25.

The green ammonia used in this bunkering operation was entirely produced with renewable electricity, and received certification from Bureau Veritas.

“This zero-carbon green ammonia bunkering operation is more than just an industry breakthrough, but also a transformational leap for China’s shipping sector to achieve the nation’s carbon neutrality and carbon peaking goals,” COSCO stated in a release.
