The ferry runs on gas

The trip to the island is now greener than ever, for the new ferry MF Samsø runs on liquefied natural gas. This means that there are fewer CO2 emissions and fewer polluting particles in the air. The ferry sails between Samsø and Jutland and is owned and operated by Samsø Municipality.

Fossil-free in 2030
The ferry brings Samsø one big step closer to achieving its overall goal of being 100% free of fossil fuels by Samsø, as even though natural gas is a fossil fuel, the ferry can easily run on renewable biogas when sufficient quantities of it can be produced. “It’s for the sake of the environment and the climate. Transport is the Achilles heel in our efforts to become a fossil-free island by 2030 and liquefied natural gas is an important part of the solution. In the long term, we expect that the ferry here on Samsø will switch over to biogas, which of course is completely CO2-neutral. At the same time, the lower gas prices mean that we save approximately two million kr. annually on operating costs,” says the mayor of Samsø Municipality, Marcel Meijer

“I think that introducing a new natural gas ferry is a most welcome step. The ferry is particularly interesting both in terms of the environment and the climate, especially if it manages to switch to biogas in the long term. The development and adaptation to new fuels requires both will and courage.” – Rasmus Helveg Petersen, Danish Minister of Climate, Energy and Buildings.
