Lower emission offerings

Blue Water can act as your partner towards transport and logistics solutions with a reduced carbon footprint. We offer different methods to reduce or compensate emissions from your supply chain contributing to a more sustainable future.

Along with our customers, we carry a responsibility for lowering carbon emissions and sustainable development on a global scale. To do so, we offer different methods to lower emissions or support sustainable projects - inside or outside of your supply chain.

Partnering with us means working alongside a dedicated team of experts who will guide you through the process of creating, executing and tailoring sustainable solutions that benefit both your business and the environment.

Carbon insetting is a technique for the active adoption of measures to decrease carbon emissions within the transport services provided. The real carbon reductions attained through the utilisation of alternative fuels can be applied as carbon insets to decarbonise transport requirements.

This method contrasts with traditional offsetting, where carbon credits are obtained from external projects, but the company's own CO2 emissions remain unchanged.

How to make the supply chain more sustainable

Insetting

Choosing offerings with reduced emissions during transport

Alternative fuels with reduced carbon emissions and optimisation methods exist for all transport modes. By choosing alternative fuels instead of fossil fuels or turning up the efficiency, it becomes possible to reduce the CO2 emissions by up to 90%, making a real difference. 

When choosing to inset, you obtain: 

  • Reduction of CO2 emissions
  • Supply chain optimisation
  • Certified reductions

Offsetting

Investing in external sustainability projects through certified methods

Carbon offsetting is used to balance out emissions by paying for emission savings in other supply chains / projects for sustainability. However, this method does not reduce emissions led into our atmosphere. Still, it can serve as an easily accessible way to get started with a more sustainable transport and logistics solution.

When choosing to offset, you obtain: 

  • The purchase of emission reductions through e.g. reforestation
  • Support to sustainability and Carbon Removal projects 
  • Certified compensation 

Carbon Calculator for transport & logistics

The foundation for reducing or compensating emissions from your supply chain is a transparent supply chain.

This can help you to get detailed access to emissions caused by your company's transport and logistics activities. 

With Blue Water's Carbon Calculator you get data on: 

  • How much carbon your transport is causing
  • Carbon emissions compared across transport modes
  • Calculations on shipments via Blue Water or other LPS
  • Greenhouse gases CO2 and CO2 equivalents e.g. air pollutants SOx, NOx, NMHC and PM10

New partnership on CO2 removal offerings

CASE

Entering a new partnership with the acknowledged company Klimate, we are now expanding our offerings within carbon compensation. Through Klimate's project portfolio, Blue Water’s customers can invest in the removal of carbon from the atmosphere that corresponds to their unavoidable emissions. This helps scale vital carbon removal methods which are important to tackle global warming.

"We look forward to serving Blue Water's customer base and advancing more sustainable shipping through high-quality carbon removal", says Yasmine Rocco, Carbon Removal Specialist at Klimate.
