STORM-System transition to renewable marine fuels in the Nordics-from a supply chain perspective
Forskningsprojekt, 2024 – 2027

The STORM project aims to support and facilitate the transition to renewable marine fuels in the Nordic region, from a system and supply chain perspective. These issues will be addressed in three shipping cases. Ferry operations between mainland Sweden and Gotland, fisheries and fishing vessels in Iceland, and liner services in the Nordic region. Through this supply chain perspective, the project seeks to scrutinise several areas, from fuel supply, distribution, and fueling processes to the impacts of the implementation of hydrogen and other innovative renewable fuel options.

The project will utilise a multidisciplinary approach, fostering collaboration between five research organisations and eight industry stakeholders. The research objectives are derived from real-world research challenges identified by the industry and include the following:

* assess fuel supply options encompassing local production and/or import of fuels or feedstock for the studied cases,
* develop and apply a framework for assessing the suitability of fuels for various shipping segments,
* identify barriers and opportunities within the selected shipping cases and formulate tailored solutions, and
* propose additional policy options to accelerate the transition to renewable marine fuels.
