Gasum has started publishing a daily price for FuelEU Maritime compliance units, aiming to bring greater transparency to the developing compliance market.
The Nordic energy company, which is one of Europe’s main providers of FuelEU Maritime pooling services, says the price reflects its actual selling level per tonne of CO₂ emitted rather than serving as a market index.
Gasum says clearer pricing will help shipping companies better understand and plan their compliance strategies under the new regulation.
“We at Gasum believe a more transparent and standardised FuelEU Maritime compliance market is needed to support shipping companies in making the right decisions,” said Jacob Granqvist, VP Maritime at Gasum.
The published price applies to volumes of 500 tCO₂ and above.
Gasum generates compliance by operating several vessels on waste-based bio-LNG within its pool, which can cut emissions by around 90% compared with conventional fuels.
Depending on the feedstock, emissions can even be negative.
The firm guarantees pool balance, meaning customers can transfer FuelEU Maritime compliance risk entirely to Gasum.
Gasum is a Finnish state-owned company with more than 40 years of experience in the gas sector, and sees FuelEU pooling as a natural extension of its work in cleaner marine energy.
