    FINNISH sustainable fuel producer Neste sees potential to power Singapore’s maritime industry with renewable diesel, as the industry races to cut carbon emissions.

    “Any engine that is using diesel is potentially a suitable candidate… I think the opportunities (and) the upsides are fairly compelling,” said Lee Ee Pin, Neste’s head of commercial in Asia-Pacific for renewable products.
