Yesterday, the U.S. Navy reached another milestone with a
successful demonstration of shipboard alternative fuel, using a 50-50 blend of
algae-based oil and petroleum F-76. The demonstration was conducted aboard the decommissioned
Spruance-class destroyer Paul F. Foster,
a “Self-Defense Test
Ship to provide the Navy an at-sea, remotely controlled, engineering test and
evaluation platform without the risk to personnel or operational assets.”
