Line which enables Wasaline to use only biofuels in the future. This also makes the Vaasa &#8211; Ume\u00e5 route the first international green shipping corridor in operation, following support from the DNV-led Nordic Roadmap. Wasaline\u2019s climate goal of being carbon neutral was primary set to 2030 but has been achieved already now.<\/p>\n<p>The co-operation between Wasaline, Stena Line and Gasum is enabling the usage of high-quality certified biogas in the daily operation of Aurora Botnia. Aurora Botnia is already equipped with batteries and an extension of the battery capacity of 10.4 MWh was announced earlier this year. After the conversion with additional battery capacity together with AYK energy, Foreship and W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 in January 2026 Aurora Botnia will have the biggest battery capacity on a ROPAX, with a total of 12.6 MWh.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have attended many seminars where shipping companies are talking about the growing costs with EU Emission Trading system (ETS) and focusing on how to get exceptions from the rules. We have instead focused on the opportunities. We have constantly worked with the possibilities to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and environmental footprint, and we have seen the coming rules as an opportunity for our traffic between Finland and Sweden. With this unique collaboration with Stena Line and Gasum, Wasaline can achieve carbon neutrality already now as a forerunner for the industry. This also means that all cargo and passengers travelling with Wasaline are sustainable with no additional extra charges for being carbon neutral\u201d, says <strong>Peter St\u00e5hlberg<\/strong>, Managing Director of Wasaline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt DNV we have been actively collaborating with partners, through the Nordic Roadmap, to launch Green Shipping Corridors and we are very pleased to see the Vaasa &#8211; Ume\u00e5 route, operated by Wasaline, recognized as the first international green shipping corridor in operation. This milestone directly supports the ambitions of both the Clydebank Declaration and the Ministerial Declaration on zero-emission shipping routes between the Nordic countries\u201d, says <strong>Vegar Rype<\/strong>, Segment Director RoRo and Ferries at DNV.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy integrating Aurora Botnia into Stena Line\u2019s FuelEU Maritime pool, we gain access to biogas previously unavailable for Stena Line which enables further emission reductions for the entire pool, lowers fuel costs and strengthens our strategic position as biofuels become increasingly scarce under more stringent regulations\u201d, says <strong>Niclas M\u00e5rtensson,<\/strong> CEO of Stena Line.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very delighted that Wasaline has chosen Gasum to deliver them biogas for the daily operations of Aurora Botnia, and we are proud to facilitate this collaboration with Stena Line. Renewable biogas is one of the already available concrete solutions for reducing emissions in maritime transport. Our goal is to continuously increase biogas availability to our customers in the years ahead\u201d, says <strong>Jacob Granqvist<\/strong>, Vice President, Maritime at Gasum.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-video av-me86d6v4-8d97a3447415266e43a2ed71bb722b7f avia-video-16-9 av-no-preview-image avia-video-load-always av-lazyload-immediate av-lazyload-video-embed'  itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1109266569'><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Green Shipping Corridor between Vaasa and Ume\u00e5\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1109266569?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&muted=0\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-me864amn-c2092472e25e1a40255ac976b52105d2 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>For more information, please contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Peter St\u00e5hlberg, Managing Director, Wasaline<br \/>\npeter.stahlberg@wasaline.com, +358 40 559 2353<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em><strong>Wasaline<\/strong> is the northernmost shipping line in the world, which transports passengers and freight daily between Vaasa in Finland and Ume\u00e5 in Sweden.
