Maersk and Kirby Corporation participated in bioethanol trials at Houston. POET, the world’s largest bioethanol producer, supplied plant-based bioethanol for the first 100% bioethanol bunkering operation in the United States. The successful trial demonstrates the potential for American-made bioethanol to become a scalable fuel option for the global maritime industry.
