The Advantages of Multi Carrier Shipping Solutions

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

The Covid-19 pandemic, plant shutdowns, delays at borders and transportation bottlenecks have all come together in a perfect storm to create an unprecedented level of disruption in global supply chains. Torpedoed delivery schedules and material shortages have become the norm rather than the exception. All these factors have highlighted the importance of effective supply chain management to keep global commerce moving. Importantly, they have also accelerated the widespread adoption of best practices that are integral to a sustainable supply chain.

Developing solutions for sustainable shipping requires a holistic view. Main engines for future vessels will no longer be used solely for propulsion. Instead, they will be part of an integrated energy system which in turn will be connected to other vessels, ports and even the complete transportation or logistics chain. Sustainable shipping solutions will also depend on the supply of fuels with a minimal carbon footprint, while future engines will need to be capable of using those fuels reliably, efficiently and with low emissions.

Following the 2015 adoption of the Paris Agreement, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) set targets to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the shipping industry. The IMO is aiming for a minimum 50% reduction in total annual GHG emissions by 2050, as compared to 2008 levels. Many shipping industry bodies and IMO members, however, are advocating for a net zero target for 2050. This would require much more ambitious interim objectives for 2030 and 2040 to stay on track to meet the Paris Agreement.

Electric vehicle (EV) adoption has reached a tipping point. It is now accelerating toward mass market adoption, particularly in states taking proactive measures to encourage transportation electrification. New York and Massachusetts have made transportation decarbonization a priority: in 2021, New York adopted legislation targeting 100% zeroemission vehicle sales for passenger vehicles by 2035, and both states have adopted the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation, which mandates an increasing number of zeroemission medium- and heavy-duty vehicle (MHDV) sales starting in 2025.

The Smart Maritime Network’s Standardised Vessel Dataset (SVD) for Noon Reports project aims to provide a free and open list of defined data formats for common vessel operational data points typically found in the daily Noon Report, with the goal of offering maritime stakeholders a central reference point for data mapping that can be applied by shipping companies, technology providers or any related third parties to improve the digital capabilities of the industry.
