Great news, with micromobility schemes reducing emissions. It remains lower a greener option that electric cars and comparable to electric buses on a passenger km basis. Although there are some variation in this depending on the type of vehicle and whether a vehicle is shared. What is clear is if you want to minimise emissions still the best option is a privately owned pedal bike (or walk).
Excellent news: e-scooter emissions have just about halved over the last 4 years - and all other micromobility emissions have reduced (from their already low levels) too. This ITF - International Transport Forum report is a must read for colleagues in shared transport and mobility as a service. #bikeshare #escooter #MaaS

Inaugural Voyage of Ground-breaking Wind-Powered Cargo Vessel Commences Embarking on its inaugural journey, a cargo ship equipped with substantial British-designed WindWings sails is underway, signalling a pivotal moment for sustainable shipping. Cargill, the shipping company behind this pioneering vessel named Pyxis Ocean, envisions these innovative sails as a transformative step toward a more environmentally friendly maritime industry. The WindWings sails, meticulously crafted to curtail fuel consumption and, consequently, diminish the carbon footprint of shipping, hold promise in addressing the industry's environmental impact. With shipping accounting for approximately 2.1% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, such eco-friendly initiatives become crucial for a sustainable future. The maiden voyage of Pyxis Ocean, spanning from China to Brazil, stands as a real-world trial for the WindWings technology. This expedition serves as a valuable opportunity to evaluate the efficacy of these sails and explore the potential of reverting to traditional wind propulsion methods for cargo transportation at sea. When the ship docks in port, the wings conveniently fold down, minimizing interference. Once in open waters, the 123ft (37.5m) tall WindWings are unfurled, constructed with the same durable material as wind turbines. This design ensures resilience against the rigors of maritime conditions. The concept of harnessing wind power to propel vessels presents a compelling alternative to solely relying on engines. If successful, this shift could potentially lead to a remarkable 30% reduction in lifetime emissions for cargo ships, marking a significant stride towards a more sustainable and eco-conscious shipping industry.

Cruise Ship with Zero Port Emissions begins service: Silverseas latest cruise ship, ‘Silver Nova’, designed with capability for zero emissions in port, has begun service with its initial cruise starting from Venice and visiting several locations in the Mediterranean. The 244m long, 54,700gt ship is the largest in the Royal Caribbean brand Silverseas fleet, and was built at Meyer Werft in Germany. With a maximum occupancy of 728 passengers and 556 crew members, Silver Nova is aimed at the high end of the cruise market. The vessel features LNG-fuelled engines, plus a hybrid arrangement of fuel cell and batteries which, when used in conjunction with shore power, will enable the ship to operate with zero emissions while in port as well as supplement the main machinery, covering peak power loads . Plans include expansion of fuel cell capacity to cover all hotel loads. This arrangement is believed to offer a 40% cut in CO2 emissions overall when compared to previous cruise ships. A further benefit of this technology is quieter operation; previous Silverseas vessels were designed with cabins forward and public areas aft, keeping cabins away from the machinery spaces. Silver Nova adopts a more convenient ‘horizontal’ design with cabins and public areas spaced throughout the length of the ship. The Nova class vessels will aim for further sustainability by reducing the amount of onboard waste, resulting in lower incineration and less material for shoreside disposal. The low-emission machinery, and hydrodynamically design hull result in an EEDI rating some 25% better than IMO standards.

Transport #Decardonisation with a maritime twist. If you live near a port you may be familiar with ships anchored off-shore. In part this is explained by a lang-haul chipping practice called sail fast then wait (SFTW), which literally goes back to the days of sail. Speed burns a lot of fuel and generates lots of emissions. London base Blue Visby has looked at the problem systemically. The thinking behind the underlying model may provide inspiration for decarbonising other areas of transport. Suggests in comments please The solution involves setting up a supply chain consortium and writing a contractual architecture built around a multilateral benefit-sharing mechanism that allows ship owners, charterers and cargo interests to share the costs (such as costs related to a longer ocean passage), and also the benefits (like fuel savings and any financial value attached to emissions reduction). It's an attempt to make the system a win-win-win situation, and to incentivize participation by all parties. Put simply; collaborative working to lower emissions and cost. #freight #logistics #railfreight
