SBTI APPROVES HUTCHISON PORTS NEAR-TERM AND NET-ZERO TARGETS
Hutchison Ports has recently obtained the approval from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTI) for our submitted groupwise greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets and 2050 net-zero target. SBTi confirmed the conformity of our targets with their net-zero criteria. Our targets are in line with the trajectory to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
To achieve the GHG emissions reduction targets, Hutchison Ports has developed a net-zero strategic roadmap which takes into account the past emissions pattern, future plan on electrification of fleet, adoption of renewable energy and alternative fuel.
Remarks: 1. Scope 1 emissions (tonne CO₂e) are GHG emissions from sources owned or controlled by the port. 2. Scope 2 emissions (tonne CO₂e) are GHG emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heat and cooling. 3. Carbon Intensity (kg CO₂e/TEU), is the total of Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions divided by the annual performance of the port. 4. The emission factors applied for the calculation of Scope 1 are adopted from the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (United Kingdom). 5. The emission factors applied for the calculation of Scope 2 GHG emissions are from the International Energy Agency..
