Europe’s e-fuels development for shipping remains in a fragile state of development. The 2025 update of T&E’s shipping e-fuels observatory looked at 80 green hydrogen and e-fuels projects representing a total of up to 3.06 million tonnes of oil equivalent by 2032. But of the projects that have been earmarked for shipping, just a small number have reached final investment decision (FID) stage or become operational.

T&E explains what needs to change. Check out the full observatory here.
