Our partner, Kuehne+Nagel, has secured the equivalent volumes of a waste-based next generation biofuel to save CO2e emissions of 40,000 TEUs. In line with the company’s zero emissions targets, customers can participate to neutralise the CO2e emissions from their own shipments on any trade or service worldwide.
The Kuehne+Nagel biofuel concept is based on next generation biofuels according to RED II* and allocates fully traceable contingents of biofuel to the customers’ cargo. Biofuel is currently the most effective measure to transport goods at zero CO2e emissions in container shipping. In contrast to fossil fuels, which are an exhaustible resource and release additional CO2e emissions, next generation biofuels are produced from renewable feedstocks only and have a circular carbon lifecycle aimed at re-using waste or biomass.
Kuehne+Nagel guarantees its customers a 100 per cent avoidance of greenhouse gases (CO2e) in sea transport, as the biofuel’s production emissions and lower density compared to conventional fuels are overcompensated. Read more from our partner, K+N >
