London, 11 November 2024 – Shipergy, a leading provider of marine fuel solutions, is pleased to announce it has achieved International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC). This certification marks a significant milestone in Shipergy’s commitment to delivering sustainable and compliant fuel solutions to the global shipping industry. The ISCC certification provides assurance that Shipergy’s fuel offerings meet rigorous sustainability, greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction, and traceability standards – aligning with the EU’s upcoming FuelEU Maritime regulation.

The ISCC certification enables Shipergy to supply marine biofuels and other low-carbon alternatives that meet the strict environmental criteria required under the FuelEU Maritime regulation, set to take effect on January 1, 2025. This regulation mandates progressive reductions in GHG intensity across all energy sources used by ships within EU waters. By achieving ISCC certification, Shipergy is now uniquely positioned to help its customers meet these regulatory standards while supporting the broader decarbonization of the maritime sector.

Key Benefits of ISCC Certification for Shipergy Customers:

  • Verified Sustainability: ISCC certification ensures that Shipergy’s fuels meet stringent standards for sustainability, taking into account factors such as lifecycle emissions, ethical sourcing, and biodiversity protection.
  • FuelEU Maritime Compliance: With ISCC-certified fuels, Shipergy can help its customers achieve compliance with the FuelEU Maritime GHG intensity targets, thereby avoiding potential penalties and leveraging compliance mechanisms like surplus banking and pooling.
  • Transparency and Accountability: ISCC certification provides full traceability of the fuel’s origins, helping customers meet documentation requirements for sustainability and emissions reporting.

Achieving ISCC certification is a testament to Shipergy’s dedication to advancing sustainable practices in the maritime industry,” said Daniel Rose, CEO of Shipergy. “With FuelEU Maritime on the horizon, we are proud to offer our customers a reliable source of certified sustainable fuels, enabling them to navigate the changing regulatory landscape confidently and responsibly.”
