Result achieved in six months thanks to the use of HVO100, a biofuel produced from renewable raw materials
Singapore – QTerminals Kramer Rotterdam (Qtkr) and Ocean Network Express (Europe) (One) have recorded a reduction of approximately 500 tonnes of CO₂ emissions over a six-month period, thanks to the use of HVO100, a biofuel produced from renewable raw materials, in internal handling operations at the port terminals. According to the two companies, HVO100 fuel allows for a reduction in CO₂ emissions of up to 90% over its lifecycle compared to traditional diesel, in addition to significantly reducing particulate matter and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. The initiative is part of a broader joint program aimed at decarbonizing port logistics activities. The cooperation between Qtkr and One represents a model of operational synergy between terminal operators and shipping operators, with the goal of implementing immediate and scalable measures to reduce environmental impact.
