OCEAN Network Express has launched a tool designed to calculate the carbon dioxide emissions from the company’s ships.
The “eco calculator” uses the vessel’s origin, destination and cargo volume and container type to calculate the emissions created over a voyage.
It measures emissions from burning fuel that has been stored in a tank (tank-to-wake) or from fuel production, delivery and use aboard ships (well-to-wake).
ONE believes the tool will help customers choose more environmentally services.
Koshiro Wake, senior vice president of the corporate strategy and sustainability department at ONE, said the company is encouraging stakeholders to participate in its efforts to decarbonise.
“The ONE Eco Calculator was developed not only for ourselves, but also for like-minded players and customers seeking sustainable transport solutions and seeking to manage their own cargo emissions.”
ONE considers the eco calculator a milestone in its journey to net zero.
