FincoEnergies launches FuelEU Pooling, helping shipowners comply with FuelEU Maritime
Today, we announce the launch of our FuelEU Pooling service, created for shipowners to enable FuelEU Maritime compliance in a cost-effective and operationally seamless way.
FuelEU Maritime, effective from 1 January 2025, mandates the reduction of greenhouse gas intensity of energy used on board ships trading in the EU. Compliance can be complex and costly for many operators, particularly those with limited access to low-carbon fuels.
Designed for shipowners, operators, charterers, and technical managers, our FuelEU Pooling service enables undercompliant vessels to meet their compliance targets by pooling with vessels running on GoodFuels sustainable biofuels.
At the heart of this innovation is our partnership with Lloyd’s Register (LR), which supported the development of the service. Their technical expertise has enabled shaping a solution that aligns with regulatory requirements and FincoEnergies’ established position as a biofuels supplier in the fuel supply chain.
Alberto Perez, Global Head, Maritime Commercial Markets at LR, said:
FuelEU Maritime represents one of the most important regulatory shifts for the shipping industry in decades,
“By integrating technical expertise with strategic guidance, we ensure shipowners, operators, and suppliers not only comply with evolving emissions standards but also proactively transform their operations, embracing new technologies and alternative fuels to ensure a sustainable and profitable future.”
Johannes Schurmann, Commercial Director International Marine at FincoEnergies, said:
With a decade of experience in biofuel bunkers and carbon certificate trading in the voluntary market, we are excited to expand our creative and solution-oriented product portfolio with FuelEU Pooling,
“Thanks to our physical presence in the supply chain, shipping companies looking for FuelEU surplus can confidently rely on us as a trusted partner in their decarbonisation journey.”
Through our role as Pool Organiser, FincoEnergies streamlines the entire pooling process – from performing biofuel bunkers and prefinancing Surplus to Surplus allocation and pool verification. With cost-effective pricing, FuelEU Pooling provides shipping companies with a competitive alternative for changing their fuel mix themselves.
