Hamilton and Oshawa Ports are contributing to the reduction of carbon emissions in Great Lakes shipping fleets by providing Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) bunkering facilities to vessels. The LNG bunkering service was launched in 2020 through a partnership between the Hamilton-Oshawa Port Authority and REV LNG. Recently, the Fure Viten became the first European-owned vessel to receive LNG at the Hamilton facility. More than 40 bunkering operations have been conducted by Petro-Nav Desgagnés and REV LNG at HOPA since its inception. The availability of LNG bunkering is addressing industry demand for environmentally friendly fuelling options in the maritime sector.
