Seaspan Energy & Anew Climate partner to deliver lower carbon marine fuel
Partnership launches market-first solution for certified R-LNG in maritime sector
Aug. 11, 2025 — North Vancouver, B.C. — Seaspan Energy (Seaspan) and Anew Climate (Anew) have entered into a strategic agreement to offer delivery of renewable liquefied natural gas (R-LNG) to customers on the North American West Coast.
As part of the service offering, Anew will supply renewable natural gas (RNG) certified by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) and provide pre-audit services to Seaspan required for ISCC certification. The RNG will comply with global standard frameworks like the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Net-Zero Framework and the FuelEU Maritime Regulation in the European Union.
This collaboration represents a first-of-its-kind initiative on North America’s West Coast, offering a more sustainable fuel option for ship owners. The initiative builds on the first bio-LNG bunkering in the U.S. that Anew Climate — then known as Element Markets — facilitated in 2021.
Seaspan Energy is a subsidiary of Seaspan ULC and a market leader on the West Coast for ship- to-ship marine bunkering of liquefied natural gas. In partnering with Anew Climate, Seaspan will expand its portfolio of offerings to include ISCC-certified R-LNG to customers all along the West Coast. This service offering will be among the first to target delivery of ISCC-certified lower carbon marine fuel at scale.
The initiative aligns with emerging guidance from the IMO, which has preliminarily approved measures to encourage emissions reductions like those associated with the use of alternative fuels such as R-LNG.
This partnership marks a significant step forward in delivering scalable, lower-carbon solutions to the maritime industry and accelerating the shift to a cleaner energy future. Anew Climate and Seaspan will work together to identify and develop commercial opportunities that promote the adoption of lower-carbon fuels, with a focus on delivering ISCC-certified R-LNG to ships throughout the region.
