Bolloré Logistics renewed its carbon neutrality programme launched in 2020 to offset all residual CO2 emissions produced by the LCL (less than container) shipments of its subsidiary TSL – specialised in maritime consolidation.
In January, Bolloré Logistics began financing a waste-to-energy project through Carbonfund.org1 on behalf of CYY Bio Power Co Ltd, a company located in Pong Daeng, 20 km west of Nakhon Ratchasima in Thailand.
It said all CO2 emissions related to LCL shipments are measured and offset through the financing of this project to capture the methane produced when treating wastewater.
The captured gas is then transformed into biofuel that replaces the fossil fuel used in the plant, and into electricity, the surplus being sold and injected into the grid.
“At Bolloré Logistics, we believe it is our duty to our customers and our planet to contribute to the deployment of a more sustainable global supply chain. We offer logistics solutions which are increasingly efficient in terms of CO2 emissions in order to reduce the overall carbon footprint of our operations,” said Pierre Houé, Deputy COO at Bolloré Logistics.
Bolloré earlier committed to reducing by 30% by 2030 (baseline 2019) its scope 3 CO2 emissions linked to its transport services.
