Heidelberg Materials Northern Europe has taken a decisive step toward low-emission coastal logistics with the development of a next-generation methanol-powered cement carrier, an 80% emissions-cutting vessel that could redefine short-sea bulk operations in Scandinavia.
Planned to enter service in early 2028, the newbuild is the product of a multi-stakeholder public-private partnership involving the Hartmann Group, the Green Shipping Programme (GSP) and the Norwegian NOx Fund, all working toward one objective: scaling practical decarbonization in everyday maritime trades.
For Heidelberg Materials, one of Europe’s largest suppliers of cement and aggregates, the vessel marks a shift in strategy. As cement production becomes cleaner through carbon-capture technologies
