The objective of the Maersk is a fleet decarbonized within 2050, but - it has specified Toft - we will not be able to make by themselves all



A.P. Møller-Mærsk has announced that the current level of the produced carbon dioxide emissions from the portacontainer of own fleet turns out inferior of 46% regarding the level of 2007, reduction - it has emphasized the Danish shipowning group - that it turns out more emphasized in its turn of +9% regarding the average of the field, and has announced that the group intends to reach the objective of the zero setting of the gas emissions to produced greenhouse effect from the ships within 2050. A stage of this distance - it has specified today the Danish company - will be that of having a fleet to zero carbon emissions within 2030.

The Maersk group has specified that, however, in order to reach this objective the ships "carbon neutral" will have to turn out profitable on the business plan within 2030 and have found that an acceleration in the development of innovative technologies is therefore necessary. The group has observed that, since world-wide the commercial exchanges will continue to grow and that therefore also the marine traffics will increase hand in hand, the improvements of the current technologies based on fossil fuel can be useful to only maintain the emissions produced from the marine transport to the current levels, but not to reduce them meaningfully or to eliminate them. "The only way possible in order to so obtain the so much necessary decarbonizzazione in our field - the operating director of A.P has explained. Møller-Mærsk, Søren Toft - he is to pass to fuel and a supply chain to emissions zero completely".

The Danish group has emphasized moreover that the marine transport needs specific solutions in order to resolve the problem of the reduction of the emissions, different solutions regarding those for the fields automotive, railway and aeronautical. The company has found that if for the road haulage previews that in future a truck electrical worker will be able to transport the maximum weight and size pairs to two container teu covering until 800 kilometers before having to recharge the batteries, instead it is obvious that for a container vessel that transport thousands of teu and that navigating from Panama hat to Rotterdam covers about 8.800 kilometers is indispensable innovative solutions. Innovative solutions in order to realize the new ships that will furrow the seas in the 2050 that - it has observed Maersk - the moment has reached now to develop, since the life of a ship is of about 20-25 years.

"Next the 5-10 years - it has specified Toft - will be crucial. We will invest meaningful resources in the innovation and the naval technologies in order to increase the feasibility of the solutions decarbonized from the technical point of view and that financial. In last the four years - Toft has remembered - we have invested about a billion of dollars and have assumed beyond 50 engineers every year in order to develop and to implement energy efficiency solutions. In future - he has specified the operating director of the shipowning group - we will not be able to make by themselves all".
