The joint venture connects the UK with Italy via Zeebrugge in Belgium, providing a lower-carbon alternative to road haulage on one of Europe’s busiest freight corridors.
DP World will increase the value of its Carbon Inset Credits fivefold from 1 October, offering cargo owners a stronger incentive to cut supply chain emissions.
The project will be based at the disused Scatsta Airport, positioning the islands as a significant player in the UK and northern Europe’s clean energy supply chain.
The project is described as a significant advance in the UK’s net-zero transition. The company claims it as a milestone in developing clean fuel for transport and industrial applications.
