AE Expeditions has conducted a successful biofuel trial on its ship, Sylvia Earle, marking a key step in its efforts to lower greenhouse gas emissions. The biofuel, certified for sustainability, demonstrated an estimated 90% reduction in emissions compared to traditional marine fuel, with no adverse effects on engine performance.

The company plans to continue these initiatives with further trials as its fleet returns to Europe in 2026. Sustainability manager Sasha Buch emphasized the importance of reducing emissions in environmentally sensitive regions and highlighted the trial's potential to advance sustainable fuels in the maritime industry.
