The shipping industry carries more than 80% of world trade and is responsible for almost 3% of human-made CO2 emissions. High-level talks are currently taking place at the London headquarters of the sector’s global regulator, where new emission-cutting goals are expected to be decided on by the end of the week.

It can significantly cut overall CO2 emissions, depending on how it’s made, and has already attracted major investments from shipping giants A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S and CMA CGM. However, it is less energy-dense than oil, meaning comparatively more would need to be stored onboard. WasteFuel has picked Dubai for its first project location, the startup’s CEO Trevor Neilson said in an interview, without specifying details on future production volumes. There are plans for further expansion and the firm has a memorandum of understanding with BP that the oil giant will take biomethanol that’s made. BP will also work with WasteFuel in improving how much biomethanol can be produced from waste. “I think of the world’s waste as an enormous resource — a modern day, green version of what Jean Paul Getty discovered in Saudi Arabia,” Neilson said. “The demand in shipping is going to be massive.” Other investors in WasteFuel have included Maersk, Marc Benioff’s TIME Ventures and philanthropist Aileen Getty. “While there is broad demand for biomethanol, we believe that the primary use of WasteFuel will be for shipping,” Neilson said.
