As temporary measures, the IMO has established targets to achieve: a 30% reduction in emissions by 2030 (compared to 2008), and a 70\u201380% reduction by 2040. BioFuel, serving as a \u2018drop-in\u2019 fuel alternative that necessitates minimal changes to existing machinery, offers the Maritime industry a viable decarbonisation solution during these interim periods.<\/p>\n<p>Maritec-Naias supports this transition by offering comprehensive testing solutions for BioFuels and Bio-alternatives, such as HVO and CNSL, through our Marine Fuel Testing Programme (MFTP) as well as tailored enhanced testing solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Our services &amp;
