Dubai’s DP World partners with IRENA to cut emissions in maritime logistics sector

DP World has committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2040 and net zero carbon by 2050. At COP 27 last year, the business announced that it had joined the Green Shipping Challenge and committed to investing up to $500 million to cut CO2 emissions by nearly 700,000 tonnes over the next five years.

Its long-term strategy involves electrifying operations, pioneering low-carbon fuel use, and exploring solutions, such as carbon-neutral synthetic natural gas. DP World partnered with the Maersk McKinney Moller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping and joined the UN Global Compact’s Think Lab on Just Transition.
