Spain is gradually integrating alternative fuels into its maritime sustainability roadmap, although ammonia remains a secondary focus compared to LNG and biofuels. While LNG dominates current initiatives, ammonia is gaining attention from academic institutions such as the University of Cádiz and maritime research centers. Government incentives for ammonia-based propulsion systems are limited, and regulatory support remains underdeveloped. However, Spain’s extensive port network including Barcelona, Valencia, and Bilbao and commitment to renewable energy provide foundational advantages. Increased participation in EU-funded maritime projects, such as Horizon Europe and Green Shipping programs, may boost the ammonia-diesel engine market in the near future. Key enablers will include investment in bunkering readiness and pilot demonstrations in domestic coastal shipping.
