The marine sector is one of the main pillars of world trade but it greatly pollutes the environment. Therefore, sustainable maritime is emerging as a key tactic to lower greenhouse gas emissions and support green logistics. Indeed, the approaches, initiatives, and technical developments influencing the direction of sustainable shipping are investigated in this study. Along with developments in ecologically friendly vessel designs and energy-efficient propulsion systems, this research evaluates the applicability of alternative fuels, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), hydrogen, ammonia, and biofuels, as green solutions for sustainable maritime and green logistics. Furthermore, the influence of regulatory systems is examined, including the guidelines established by the International Maritime Organisation on promoting sustainability in the maritime industry. A hybrid fuzzy-TOPSIS approach is used to determine what alternative fuel is the best and available to aid in the objectives of sustainable maritime and green logistics. As a result, the performance scores using the Fuzzy-TOPSIS approach show that Biofuels (A1) achieved the highest score (0.689), followed by hydrogen (A2) at 0.492. Ammonia (A3) and LNG (A4) scored 0.441 and 0.466, respectively, indicating that biofuels are the most preferred alternative for sustainable energy selection, in terms of sustainable maritime and green logistics.
