• French groups CMA CGM and ENGIE sign a framework agreement to develop a biomethane production facility in the Le Havre industrial and port area.
• From 2029, the facility, to be developed by ENGIE, will supply 7,000 tons (equivalent to 100 GWh) of biomethane annually to CMA CGM’s fleet, avoiding an estimated 23,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions each year.
• This renewable fuel cuts lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by at least 67% and can be used by CMA CGM’s LNG-powered vessels without infrastructure or engine modifications.
• The project will also turn livestock waste, household biowaste and agricultural residues into digestates, which can be used as natural fertilizer by local farmers.
