Starting 1 January 2025, the six-month trial will reward importers with 50kg of certified carbon credits for every loaded container moved through DP World\u2019s UK ports. <\/p>\n
\u201cAt DP World, we are constantly exploring ways to reduce carbon emissions across our customers\u2019 supply chains,\u201d said John Trenchard, vice president \u2013 commercial & supply chain at DP World UK.<\/p>\n
\u201cInsetting carbon emissions is a transparent, direct, and pragmatic approach with immediate measurable impact for our customers. By participating in this world-first trial, businesses can actively contribute to global decarbonisation efforts while achieving their sustainability goals.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tailor-made insetting<\/strong><\/p>\n These port carbon insetting credits differ from traditional offsets by targeting measurable emissions reductions within a company\u2019s own supply chain. The programme underscores DP World\u2019s commitment to greener logistics, aligning with the global push for sustainable supply chains.<\/p>\n The credits, generated by Unifeeder, a DP World subsidiary, come from verified GHG reductions achieved through the use of lower-carbon fuels in Northern European shipping operations.<\/p>\n DP World said that if just 50% of import volume joins the trial, the programme could displace over 11,000 tonnes of fossil fuels, cutting 10,000 tonnes of CO\u2082 emissions.<\/p>\n The trial programe builds on DP World\u2019s successful Modal Shift Programme, which reduced over 17,000 tonnes of emissions.<\/p>\n Businesses are encouraged to register for the trial<\/a> by 31 December 2024 or contact DP World at energytransition.uk@dpworld.com<\/a> to receive their free carbon inset credits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" DP World has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative to advance port decarbonisation and sustainability through its Carbon Inset Programme at its UK operations of London Gateway and Southampton.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":4872,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[34,8],"tags":[1358,966,267,249,1884,1808,342,253],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-4871","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-europe-greenport","category-projects-initiatives-greenport","tag-carbon-credits","tag-carbon-insetting","tag-carbon-offsetting","tag-dp-world","tag-green-incentive","tag-port-decarbonisation","tag-supply-chain","tag-unifeeder"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4871","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4871"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4871\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4873,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4871\/revisions\/4873"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4872"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4871"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4871"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4871"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=4871"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
