CMA CGM and Maersk enter into decarbonisation partnership
Two of the largest container shipping companies, Maersk and CMA CGM have decided to collaborate on decarbonisation initiatives. Both ocean carriers believe that working together can assist in accelerating the green transition in shipping.
CMA CGM and Maersk have established a net-zero target for their shipping businesses, have found scalable technologies that can have an impact this decade and have already taken steps to promote maritime decarbonisation.
Additionally, both companies are investing in new green vessels. Maersk has placed an order for vessels that can run on bio/e-methanol, while the French shipping line has placed orders for LNG-propelled ships that can also run on bio/e-methane, the new green equivalent to current LNG, as well as vessels that can run on bio/e-methanol.
