Deendayal Port Authority has signed a partnership with the International Council on Clean Transportation to reduce emissions from shipping and port operations.
The collaboration focuses on cutting greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions by improving energy efficiency, promoting cleaner fuels, and enhancing operational practices at port facilities. The initiative is part of broader efforts to decarbonize maritime logistics and align with global climate targets.
Key areas of focus include emissions monitoring, adoption of low-emission technologies, optimization of cargo handling processes, and support for cleaner vessel operations. The partnership is also expected to encourage data-driven strategies to measure and reduce environmental impact across port activities.
Industry observers say the move reflects increasing pressure on global ports to adopt sustainable practices as international trade grows. Deendayal Port is expected to play a larger role in green shipping initiatives, strengthening India’s position in environmentally responsible maritime infrastructure.
