How Port Incentives Are Accelerating Decarbonisation

The race to decarbonise logistics is gathering pace—but can ports become one of the industry's biggest catalysts for change?

In this episode of Logistics Business Conversations, we speak with John Trenchard, Vice President of Sustainable International Supply Chains Europe at DP World, to explore how innovative port incentives, carbon inset programmes and low-carbon transport initiatives are helping reduce emissions across the supply chain.

From shifting freight from road to rail and rewarding cleaner transport choices, to trialling electric trucks, HVO fuel and carbon accounting for Scope 3 emissions, John explains how practical incentives are encouraging businesses to embrace more sustainable logistics without compromising efficiency.

We also discuss why collaboration across ports, carriers and cargo owners is essential, how carbon inset credits are changing the way companies measure supply chain emissions, and why progress—not perfection—is the key to achieving meaningful decarbonisation.

If you're interested in sustainable logistics, freight transport, carbon reduction or the future of greener supply chains, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
