PRIMA GOES GREEN
Prima corporation S.A. works to decarbonize shipping
15% reduction in carbon intensity by 2030
The decarbonization of shipping is an urgent but achievable goal. Shipping industry is investing in energy efficiency, in its own developing pace, but shipping is still a considerable source of GHG emissions. The industry is investing in energy efficiency but it still contributes to over three percent of global GHG emissions. Without significant action, emissions from the sector are set to materially increase by 2050. Prima is committed to the transition to zero emissions shipping and our new decarbonization target – a 15 percent reduction in carbon intensity by 2030 against the 2019 IMO baseline across our entire chartering operation – is a statement of our intent.
We are advocating for industry-wide action on shipping emissions and investing in new technologies and vessels to help achieve a more sustainable shipping industry.
Prima promotes other initiatives, including also co-testing of and co-funding studies focused on using wind propulsion use of electric propulsions as a zero-emissions shipping fuel.
