China-France Green Corridors: A New Blueprint for Maritime Decarbonization

Green corridors are a meaningful approach to emissions reduction for shipping. They coordinate the various factors required to make emissions reductions possible. Designating a green corridor will ensure that emissions-reducing fuels will be available in sufficient quantity for the ships calling, and the infrastructure for production and delivery is there. On-shore power will also be available for ships, so they do not need to operate engines just to provide power for the ship support. And in the port, cargo handling equipment can also be designed with cleaner emissions. Properly done, drayage functions will also operate with cleaner power.

It’s great to see a new green corridor connecting China and France. The ports involved are both important stops. And we can anticipate more trade between the EU and
China because of the American tariff hoopla.
