In my blog for ITF - International Transport Forum this week, I discuss the urgent need for sustainable and resilient infrastructure to withstand the geopolitical and climate-driven challenges we’re experiencing across global trade systems. Over the past four years alone, our industry has faced an array of disruptions, highlighting the fragility of our supply chains and the urgent need to address regulatory challenges that limit our ability to create lasting impact and work towards our net zero targets. DP World has committed to creating efficient domestic and international logistics networks that align with global climate goals and support our customers in achieving their ambitions for decarbonisation. Whether through electrification of the vehicles in our ports, alternative fuels to power vessels or technology innovations to optimise trade routes, we are exploring solutions across all markets where we operate to support our long-term vision of a sustainable and inclusive future. I firmly believe improving the collaboration between the public and private sectors is critical to achieving a net-zero future - find out why in my article here: https://lnkd.in/dZs8Nmzp

EXCLUSIVE: Decarbonisation in the US port system When it comes to decarbonisation at US ports, progress has been made but there is a need for further study on the options and technology available, writes Panos Koutsourakis, VP Global Sustainability, ABS.

There are a lot of semi-viable options to upgrade existing solutions to a sustainable alternative. The distinction from viable to semi-viable, being active testing (or lack thereof) in adverse conditions, which appears to be a sticking point for many innovators - having the resources available for said testing. Progress is being made on a technological side, but resources from all stakeholders must be committed to achieve net-zero. Find out more below. #ports #portstrategy #greenport #decarbonisation

Green shipping corridors are an intriguing prospect in the move to maritime decarbonization. They provide a tangible framework for implementing green operations across a well-defined trade route - and a way for support to be accurately provided to those companies that are driving change. However, optimism for the idea should be tempered by the associated complexity, competing interests, and the ability to measure results. #wilhelmsen #shipping #maritime #innovation #decarbonisaton

The Global Maritime Forum presents its Annual Progress Report on Green Shipping Corridors for 2023. This report emphasizes the importance of green corridors—trade routes catalyzing zero-emission shipping through public and private efforts. Green corridors provide an opportunity to accelerate the maritime sector's transition to zero emissions by leveraging advantageous routes and creating an enabling ecosystem. The report outlines the stages of corridor development, including initiation, planning, execution, and operation. It also highlights progress, challenges, and the role of corridors in achieving the International Maritime Organisation's ambitious emission reduction targets. The report concludes with recommendations and emphasizes the pivotal role of collaborative efforts in decarbonizing shipping.

Indeed, green shipping corridors serve as a significant driver for the maritime industry's ambitious decarbonization objectives. They not only facilitate the integration of green technologies along crucial trade routes but also promote a collaborative framework essencial for global scalability.
