Hyundai bet

on

rail freight to get emission levels on track

MUMBAI: As the world of mobility makes a beeline towards a greener tomorrow, rail freight is gradually catching up as one of the preferred modes of transportation. Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai are among the top market players that have been actively using railways for dispatches of cars. Both these companies, have seen more than 5-fold jump in their exports through Railway

Maruti Suzuki has dispatched over 14.9 lakh vehicles using the rail mode till FY 2022-23, cumulatively averting 6700 MT of carbon emissions. From a modest 65,700 units in FY 2015, to a total of 335,245 units in FY 2023, it is a five-fold jump in 8 years. Notably, in FY2023, the company dispatched over 100,000 units more than FY2022, registering an increase of nearly 43 percent in dispatches using the rail mode.

Rahul Bharti, Executive Officer, Corporate Affairs, Maruti Suzuki India

pointed out, “Maruti Suzuki has been making sustained efforts to increase its share of dispatches via the rail mode, which we believe is a far more efficient and optimal approach as compared to transport of cars via road. It helps to avoid congestion on roads, save fuel, and bring down overall carbon emissions Going ahead, we aim to systematically increase dispatches by around 100,000 units annually in the coming years.”

Year No. of dispatches Share of vehicles dispatched through rail mode

FY2018-19 1.55 lakh 8%

FY2019-20 1.78 lakh 12%

FY2020-21 1.88 lakh 13%

FY2021-22 2.33 lakh 15%

FY2022-23 3.35 lakh 18%

Not only within the country, Hyundai has even started exporting to Nepal via rail transport. Almost 23 percent of the total dispatches by Hyundai is via rail transport. Tarun Garg, COO, Hyundai Motor India said that “At Hyundai Motor India, our ‘Customer First’ approach makes us transcend all barriers to r e l e n t l e s s l y d e l i v e r m a x i m u m satisfaction to our esteemed customers. To optimise modal share for the movement of Hyundai vehicles from our

plant in Sriperumbudur to Hyundai Dealers across the country, we utilise Indian Railway’s extensive rail-network and customized rolling stock We transport around 23 percent of our vehicles via rail mode.”

Rail is the least emissions-intensive mode of passenger transport and more than fifth of the vehicles produced in the country get transportd via rail traffic now As per International Energy A g e n c y ( I E A ) , i n g e n e r a l , r a i l transports around 7% of global passenger-km and 6% of tonne-km but accounts for only around 1% of transport emissions.

Indian Railways sees need for dedicated coal corridors

NEW DELHI: A recent Railway

B o a r d s t u d y u n d e r s c o r e s t h e imperative need for dedicated coal corridors to meet the escalating power demand in India, according to a report. The study highlights that the bulk of coal transportation originates from Odisha, Jharkhand, and Chhattisgarh to various regions in the north, west, and southeast of the nation.

T h e r e p o r t e m p h a s i z e s t h e necessity of establishing exclusive railway tracks for coal transportation

along these routes. The report, focused on estimating coal transportation by rail until 2030, stresses the alignment of coal corridors with dedicated freight corridors (DFC).

S p e c i f i c a l l y, i t r e c o m m e n d s prioritizing the development of coal corridors with the east coast DFC and the eastern section of the east-west DFC. These corridors would facilitate the movement of coal, particularly from Talacher to ports along the eastern coastline Estimates indicate that

India’s energy requirements will surge to approximately 3,000 billion units (BU) annually by 2030.

With an anticipated population of 1.51 billion in 2030, per capita energy consumption in India is expected to hover around 2,000 units annually The study underscores the potential repercussions of any energy shortfall, which could severely hamper the nation’s growth, leading to shortages or outages across various sectors, including manufacturing, agriculture,and transport.

India joins hands with industry, foreign experts to estimate Total Logistics cost : Special Secretary (Logistics)

NEW DELHI: The Government is working with members of industry as well as taking advice from foreign experts to arrive at an estimated total logistics cost for India, which will be made public by the end of September, Sumita Dawra, Special Secretary, Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), was quoted in an interview recently “We have a task force comprising people from the Government, research organisations, think tanks, as well as the industry collaborating with us on this,” she said.

CMA CGM and Maersk join forces to accelerate the decarbonization of the shipping industry

C O P E N H A G E N : A.P . Moller - Maersk A/S and CMA CGM have decided to join forces on several areas relating to decarbonization, in full compliance with all laws and regulations.

As frontrunners of the energy transition in shipping, both companies are convinced that joint action will help accelerating the green transition in shipping, learning from each other to go further and faster. Cont’d. Pg. 5

India joins hands with industry, foreign experts to estimate

Total Logistics cost : Special Secretary (Logistics)

Cont’d. from Pg. 3

The task force was formed in March 2023 when a need was felt to develop a framework for the calculation of logistics costs on a periodic basis. This 18-member task force has been working under the chairpersonship of Dawra to develop a framework for the calculation of logistics costs in India.

“The taskforce has taken about four months to arrive at the baseline estimate,” Dawra says “Apart from that, we also have to figure out how to improve that baseline so that we have more authentic information rather than making assumptions for the administrative and inventory costs. That framework too has been developed by this task force for the long term,” she added. With this, the DPIIT will now be able to show a clear year-on-year comparison of how the National Logistics Policy is helping to reduce logistics costs

Currently, the industry works with various estimates ranging between 8-14 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP). However, the wide variation in estimation has raised some questions. “When there is such a wide variation in the estimation, naturally, there will be a question of credibility We looked at the estimate of 14 percent given by consulting

firm Armstrong & Associates but found that there is no clear basis for that,” says Dawra.

So the department is now using a 2018 report by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) as a baseline for the calculation of logistics costs. The report put India’s logistics costs at 8.35 percent of GDP

However, the Government has faced a backlash from India Inc, which has estimated the total logistics cost to be around 14 percent of GDP

The Government is now building their own estimate by looking at Ministry of Statistics and Policy Implementation (MoSPI) data sets and supply use tables, among others.

The Government is also taking all the help it can get from outside. “We are working with experts from other countries for the computation of logistics costs and to arrive at the methodology,” says Dawra.

Professor Kyoung Kwon of the Asia Pacic School of L o g i s t i c s & G r a d u a t e S c h o o l o f L o g i s t i c s , Inha University in Korea, and Keku Bomi Gazder, Managing Director & Chief Executive Ofcer, Aviapro Logistic Services, are members of the task force.

The baseline of this logistics estimate, as per Dawra, will be set at 2022-23.

CMA CGM and Maersk join forces to accelerate the decarbonization of the shipping industry

Cont’d. from Pg. 3

C M A C G M a n d Maersk have set a netzero target for their shipping business, have identified scalable solutions that can create impact in this decade, and have already individually taken ambitious paths on promoting decarbonization for shipping.

Maersk has been ordering vessels that can be operated on bio/e-methanol.

CMA CGM has been ordering LNG-propelled vessels, that can also be operated on bio/e-methane, the new green equivalent of current LNG, and has also placed orders for vessels that can be operated on bio/e-methanol.

While these two fuel streams appear now as the most mature among existing solutions, both companies expect the future fuel mix of shipping will include other streams that should be developed in the coming years.

An ambitious collaboration to develop the future of fuels for the shipping industry

Specifically, both shipping lines will work more together to develop the use of alternative greener fuels for container vessel propulsion, namely:

• Developing high standards for alternative sustainable, green fuels – including the analysis of full lifecycle and related greenhouse gasses – and helping to setting the framework of mass production of green methane and green methanol.

• Developing and maintaining standards for operation of green methanol vessels with regards to safety and bunkering, as well as accelerating port readiness for bunkering and supply of bio/e-methanol at key ports around the world.

• Continuing to explore jointly R&D on other components of the net zero solution as new alternative fuels, like ammonia, or innovation technology for our ships.

Two leading shipping companies to push advocacy together for the energy transition of the industry

Moreover, Maersk and CMA-CGM both agree to the

fundamental role of regulation in securing the decarbonization of the sector Both companies warmly welcome the outcome of the recent Marine Environment Protection Committee of the International Maritime Organization during which the IMO’s 2023 strategy for reducing GHG Emissions from Ships was adopted, with reinforced targets to tackle harmful emissions.

Maersk and CMA CGM remain committed to jointly advocating for and encouraging IMO Member States to adopt ambitious measures in their pursuit of the highest attainable goals. Regional measures such as the EU Fit for 55 and the Inflation Reduction Act in the US are welcomed by both companies to help stimulate demand for green shipping solutions.

CMA CGM and Maersk affirm their readiness to collaboratively engage with regulatory stakeholders in establishing a robust and sustainable international regulatory GHG framework and invite other international shipping lines who so wish to join them in this cooperation with the regulatory institutions. Such a framework is in both our companies’ perspective a prerequisite to reducing carbon emissions for the shipping industry and securing a level-playing field for a global business environment.

“This partnership is a milestone for the decarbonization of our industry. By combining the know-how and the expertise of two shipping leaders, we will accelerate the development of new solutions and technologies, enabling our industry to reach its CO2 reduction targets. We are looking forward to being joined by other companies,”said, Rodolphe Saadé, Chairman and Chief Executive Ofcer of the CMA CGM Group.

“A.P Moller - Maersk wants to accelerate the green transition in shipping and logistics and to do so, we need strong involvement from partners across the industry. We are pleased to have an ally in CMA CGM and it’s a testament that when we united through determined efforts and partnerships, a tangible and optimistic path toward a sustainable future emerges,” said Vincent Clerc, Chief Executive Ofcer at A.P. Moller – Maersk.

• Both CMA CGM and Maersk have set ambitious Net Zero target and invest extensively in the energy transition in shipping.

• The two leading shipping companies will work together to develop the use of alternative greener fuels for container vessel propulsion.

• Maersk and CMA CGM affirm their readiness to collaboratively engage with regulatory stakeholders to secure the decarbonization of the sector

India imposes higher export duties on onions to stabilize prices in domestic market

NEW DELHI : Food prices in India have soared in the last two months mostly due to an erratic monsoon. The consumer price index touched 11.5 percent in July

The Government has imposed export restrictions on some food items to control domestic prices. After tomatoes, costly onion rates are pinching household budgets of Indians. Erratic rains damaged the crop and disrupted supply chains leading to 80 percent increase in prices.

To b o o s t s u p p l i e s a n d l o w e r t h e c o s t , the Government has imposed a 40 percent export duty till 31st December.

Haji Yamin, President of the Onions Traders Association: “As a result of the Government imposing 40 percent export duty, onion prices have come down but this is a temporary measure.

In the next two weeks we expect the prices to go up again as new crops in the state of Karnataka has been damaged and this will impact the domestic prices.”

Sky rocketing costs of food essentials driven by uneven rains have burdened the consumers. About two weeks back tomatoes costed five times more till the Government started imports from neighbouring Nepal.

Food price inflation rose to 11.5 percent, highest in more than three and half years, pushing the government to act quickly It started by banning the export of non-white basmati rice in July this and the latest is 20 percent export duty on parboiled rice.

DCS 2023: Container Shipping nears Turning Point amid Challenges and Chances, Syncs with 4-Year Global GDP Trend to 2027

: C o n t a i n e r x C h a n g e , a n online container logistics platform held its 5th edition of its Ultimate Container Networking Event, the Digital Container Summit 2023 on 13-14 September 2023 in Hamburg, Germany

Industry experts like Peter Sand, Xeneta, Antonia Ambrozy, Freightos, John Fossey, Drewry, Nick Saavides, Loadstar, Supal Shah, Arcon Container, Jack Sun, Orange Container Line, Danny den Boer, SeaCube, and Stefan Verberckmoes, Alphaliner/AXSMarine examined container leasing, demandsupply dynamics, market shifts, and strategic insights, providing an unparalleled understanding of the industry's current landscape and its future trajectory

Demand- Supply Dynamics; the shipping outlook

In a deep dive of container shipping demand, experts agreed that the growth in container traffic experienced a notable decline in 2022 Projections for the current year also suggest a less-thanoptimistic outlook While there is optimism for a recovery, the overall rates of growth are anticipated to remain lower compared to previous decades.

The supply side of the equation revealed that the global fleet of container ships is set for expansion in 2023 and beyond. Projections indicate that by the end of 2025, the industry will boast an impressive 30 million Twenty-Foot Equivalent Unit (TEU) slots in service. Vessel slot capacity growth, a crucial factor, witnessed a 4.5% increase in 2022 and is forecasted to expand by 5% in 2023 and further by 6.3% in 2024.

Despite the prevailing slowdown in trade, the interest in ordering new ships has remained unwavering. Over 80% of vessel orders placed in 2023 have been for dual-fuel tonnage, with a substantial number targeting neo-panamax vessels. However, experts cautioned that the historically low rate of scrapping in recent years is set to change, signifying a significant shift in the industry

D r e w r y, a l e a d i n g m a r i t i m e c o n s u l t a n c y, p r o v i d e d a d e e p e r perspective by estimating that the effective container ship capacity was approximately 17% below its potential in 2021 and 15% in 2022. However, significant improvements have already occurred in 2023, with this figure expected to plummet to 7% or possibly even lower. These findings highlight the critical role capacity availability has played in influencing freight rates and carrier profitability over the past two years.

Container equipment market

The container equipment market discussions revealed that the global fleet of containers is on track to experience a slight decline in the current year, and production is expected to hit its lowest p o i n t i n m o r e t h a n a d e c a d e Drewry anticipates a dip in the pool of c o n t a i n e r e q u i p m e n t t h i s y e a r, from 50.9 million TEU to 49.9 million TEU, followed by an upward trajectory leading

up to 2025, where 53.5 million TEU is anticipated to be in service.

The underlying reason for the unexpectedly low replacement of aging containers in 2021 and the first eight months of 2022 was attributed to supply c h a i n c o n g e s t i o n , w h e r e t h e s e containers were indispensable for maritime trade. However, this overhang is gradually diminishing as supply chains return to a semblance of normalcy.

Lessors' influence over the pool witnessed a slight dip in 2022, down from just over 51% in 2021 to 49.8%. In 2023, it is projected to further decrease to 48.5%, before rallying to 50.2% by 2025. Notably, ocean carriers have capitalized on their financial strength by ordering more equipment, while logistics companies and Beneficial Cargo Owners (BCOs) have also been investing in containers.

Container production statistics revealed that over 6.6 million TEU of dry freight containers were produced in 2021, which drastically fell to 3.45 million TEU in 2022. 40ft high cube containers d o m i n a t e d t h e m a r k e t i n 2 0 2 1 , accounting for over 85% of dry freight production However, this dominance waned in 2022, with 40ft high cubes accounting for less than 65% of the output Production trends continue to fluctuate, with expectations of an upswing in 2024, largely driven by replacement needs Furthermore, potential competition from new factories in Vietnam could further shape this landscape.

Container Prices and Lease Rates

Price dynamics in the container industry have undergone significant shifts. Prices have exhibited a downward trend since the summer of 2021. Supply-demand imbalances have played a significant role in these fluctuations, with expectations of a narrowing gap from 2024 as more ships retire.

To adapt to the changing landscape, ocean carriers have implemented superslow steaming and added additional vessels to loops to absorb surplus tonnage Newbuild container prices experienced a strong surge until late summer or early autumn 2021, with a 20ft standard dry freight container's price soaring over 35% within a year.

However, prices softened throughout 2022, with 40ft high cubes even lower than their end-of-2020 prices and 20ft standards stabilizing at the end-of-2020 levels. While prices exhibited a slight uptick in the first half of 2023, demand remained subdued Reefercontainerpricesremained relatively stable, with expectations of gradual increases driven by strong demand

“The container shipping industry is facing a turning point with both challenges and chances. Trade growth is slowing down, and this year, we only expect a tiny 0.3% increase. There are uncertainties related to the economy and politics that are affecting the market. Also, the container shipping business is

the expected increase in the space available on ships in the next three years

0 2 5 ” , c o m m e n t e d C h r i s i t a n R o e l o f f s , C E O & Co- Founder, Container xChange.

Slower trade growth and reduced supply chain congestion have led to improvements in slot capacity and container availability, creating a situation of considerable oversupply, especially in t h e v e s s e l s e g m e n t D r e w r y ' s estimations suggest that the container pool is set to decline by about 2% in the current year, with total manufacturing output unlikely to exceed 1 9 million TEU—a stark contrast to the 7.2 million TEU and 3.8 million TEU produced in 2021 and 2022, respectively Newbuild prices, similar to freight rates and spot rates, showed signs of bottoming out, but any price increases in the current year are expected to be modest, given the soft demand landscape.

Second-hand container prices experienced significant fluctuations, with notable increases in 2021. These prices closely tracked newbuild prices, driven by robust demand and limited equipment availability due to maritime trading requirements Forecasts indicate that prices are likely to soften in the coming years.

"Containers can be booked from Hamburg to Shanghai for $80 per box, from India and the Middle East it’s $5 per container, but that includes the THC [terminal handling charge] which is around $250 a box, so they [the lines] pay [between $170 and $245] to evacuate their e q u i p m e n t t o A s i a , " e x p l a i n e d Supal Shah, the Group President of Arcon Containers, during the Digital Container Summit (DCS) 2023 in Hamburg. This highlights the significant cost carriers bear in moving empty containers, emphasizing the need for improved operational efficiencies through better depot communications. HHLA's Strategic Stake Acquisition and Expansion Plans

Highlighting an industry-shaping development, the Port of Hamburg witnessed a groundbreaking agreement. Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA), the terminal operator at the port, has entered into an agreement to acquire a substantial 49.9% stake in the operator Currently, the city of Hamburg h o l d s a 6 9 . 2 5 % s t a k e i n H H L A . This acquisition is expected to have a domino effect, with Bremerhaven potentially losing out.

Chief Analyst at Xeneta, Peter Sand, shared his insights at the conference He highlighted that MSC's agreement to buy a 49 9% stake in HHLA will likely impact the container shipping landscape, with potential commitments and benefits for both parties Sand stated, "MSC will surely have to commit further volumes as part of the agreement, but the city will benefit from the injection of cash " He also noted that this move aligns with MSC's strategy of operating efficiently from port to port.
