Peel Ports cuts operational greenhouse gas emissions by one third in three years

Peel Ports cuts operational greenhouse gas emissions by one third in three yeaPeel Ports Group has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions across its port facilities by almost a third since 2020, partly due to biofuel-powered equipment and electric vehicles.

The independently verified figures in the company’s new ESG report confirm the group has reduced Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions across its port operations by 32%, against its 2020 baseline.

The company’s Scope 1 emissions across its port operations have fallen by 47% during that time, largely helped by transitioning to using biofuels instead of diesels in straddle carriers and other equipment, and through the electrification of 97% of the group’s vehicle fleet.
