Container terminal at Port of Gothenburg to be fossil fuel free by 2020
APM Terminals (APMT) Gothenburg has launched a climate strategy aiming to become fossil fuel free by 2020, while supporting the port authority’s goal to reduce carbon emissions by 70% by 2030.
In order to achieve these goals, a machine park will be completely run on renewable fuels, rail-borne freight will need to be doubled and loading and discharge operations will be optimised.
The port authority has already been climate neutral since 2015. Shore side power for vessels has been available since the beginning of the 2000s, and a special port tariff discount for vessels that report a good environmental performance has been in place since 2013.
