LNG, as a promising lower-emission alternative fuel has not been used for container vessels. At a press conference held during the Kormarine Trade Fair in Busan, both parties announced the progress they have made towards developing LNG-fueled large container vessels. This will make conventional fuel unattractive.

US President Barack Obama today announced a new harmonized national policy intended to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for all new cars and trucks sold in the US. The resulting new standards will cover model years 2012-2016, and will require an average fuel economy standard of 35.5

The new regulation also implements zero fuel evaporative emission standards for PCs and LDTs, and more stringent evaporative standards for medium-duty vehicles (MDVs). The new standard drops greenhouse gas emissions to 166 grams per mile, a reduction of 34% compared to 2016 levels.
