This week, The National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), became the newest member of the eFuel Alliance. The eFuel Alliance stands for fair competition and equal competitive condition for all relevant emission reduction solutions and aims to create the conditions for the industrial production and widespread use of CO2-neutral fuels from renewable sources of energy.
"The eFuels Alliance brings much-needed focus to one of the most pragmatic and meaningful ways to continue to reduce emissions from the existing recreational boat fleet, and we're excited to collaborate with other industries and participate in important discussions on bringing myriad sustainable fuel options to the market," said Jeff Wasil, Senior Director of Environmental Health and Safety at the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA). "Recreational boats operate very differently from land-based vehicles and require multiple technology solutions to decarbonize. With approximately 30-million recreational boats in operation globally, sustainable marine fuels, including the development of e-fuels, are essential to further reduce emissions from our sector. As we chart the course for continued decarbonization in the marine industry, we are looking forward to bringing our industry's research and experience to the eFuels Alliance and are thrilled about the opportunity to learn from the accomplishments achieved thus far within Europe by the alliance and how they may apply in United States."
