Expanding wetland fringes along the estuary

T

he Port of London Authority (PLA) is leading a new consortium aiming to develop a UK hydrogen highway network which consists of land, sea and ports.

The hydrogen highway could significantly support the integration of hydrogen technologies into a range of different sectors with six projects planned for the highway.

The six projects cover energy diversity research, trialing hydrogen power generation for vessels based at the PLA’s Denton Wharf, establishing the business case for back hauling hydrogen into central London, ship design and health & safety requirements.

The maritime sector faces some of the most demanding challenges of our current generation. The UK is committed to lowering greenhouse gas emissions in future shipping, port operations and the maritime industry, to meet Climate Act targets.

Port of London Authority.

Reducing the use of carbon-based fuel for transport and energy intensive industries, this additional capacity presents an ideal opportunity to use surplus electricity for generation and storage of green hydrogen.

The project presents a holistic approach to a national hydrogen highway network using existing operations and new offshore energy generation facilities with a smart autonomous network of hydrogen carrier vessels to distribute large quantities of energy from offshore locations to major energy users and clean fuel demand. The tasks supporting the project’s development range from reviews and assessment scorecards of critical energy infrastructure and health and safety requirements to innovative technology developments for the integration of smart and digital maritime transport applications.

Major technology developments are the integration of autonomous systems for ships manoeuvring in port and the design of a Port of London Authority. physical infrastructure improving the shortcomings of present autonomous mooring, berthing and offloading operations.

These would reduce the human intervention in critical near shore vessel operations where much reliance is still placed on manual systems and operations.

Developing and assessing business opportunities arising from a national hydrogen highway and integrating existing maritime businesses will increase the economic optimization from the onset.

Regular exchange and communication with key stakeholders through the dissemination of project milestones and deliverables will ensure efficient and transparent connection of the maritime industry.

The work presents an analysis of the benefits of hydrogen to the local economy through detailed consideration of the safe use, distribution and management of hydrogen in land to vessel operations, piers, terminals with the interaction of the port and city hinterlands aiming to deliver the ship service connection.

The environment along the banks of tidal Thames are often constrained by

adevelopment, navigational requirements and flood defenses. Habitats and soft edges are challenge in London particularly, where space for water is difficult to protect against need for housing. The Port of London Authority (PLA) has been working with the Environment Agency, Thames Estuary Partnership and Tideway Tunnel to review the artificial habitats created along the man-made banks in the Thames.

The work involved monitoring of sediment, habitat, flora and fauna. As a result revised guidance for developers called Estuary Edges has been updated to help the right habitat creation in the right areas of any estuary like the Thames. It is online and fully accessible.

In the east, the PLA is currently monitoring the areas of habitat that do exist to manage any proposed increase in growth as a result of the Thames Vision, and improve habitats where they are already in poor condition alongside developments by operators and maintenance of the PLA’s assets in the area.

The priority sites are those with saltmarsh which both protect the local area from the storm energy in bad weather and increase carbon sequestration.

Furthermore, the PLA has funded the RSPB (largest UK nature conservation charity) to improve over 200 hectares of wet grassland and marshes on both sides of the estuary, again increasing the resilience of the habitat for predicted increases in extreme weather.

Monitoring has been incorporated into the projects and will inform future works and effectiveness. The PLA staff have also been out to help create habitats as part of their volunteering and wellness, bringing them closer to nature and helping them invest in the actions of partner organisations.

WOMEN in

PORTS

T

UK Ports are making the workplace better for women working in this sector.

13

raditionally, the port sector or the Shipping Industry has been an exclusively male preserved workplace and only approximately three percent of the global women workforces are involved in this sector.

UK PORTS YEARBOOK 2024

But this is changing as more and more women are working at various levels and roles in the Port Sector. However, there is still the need to promote gender equality and empower women the same way as men.

Strong unions need women.

It’s now the responsibility of unions to ensure that women are represented in their collective bargaining and that issues concerning women working in the Ports Sector are addressed. A safer workplace for women, free from harassment and bullying, is a happier workplace for all. Childcare and parental leave for both men and women giving more family time for those employees.

Women actively engaged in their unions mean more women members and stronger unions for all.

Women working within the Port Sector need unions.

Union membership gives women a powerful network to share experiences and get support and advice. Given that women are also far more likely to occupy part-time, lower-paid and often, casual contractual roles, the unions support them in times of economic crisis and government cutbacks and if employers fail to honour their right to a safe and fair workplace. As women are often a minority group in a port environment, it is even more vital for their voice to be heard and the union provides that space.

How you can get involved By actively getting involved women working in any capacity at the Ports are providing a voice for women working in this sector all over the world. ■

PORTS WITHOUT THE RIGHT INFRASTRUCTURE NEED A NEW SHORE POWER SOLUTION

T

here's a growing demand for shoreside power, but many ports lack the electrical infrastructure to support traditional systems. A new solution is required.

A series of global supply chain shocks have tested the global ports system’s resilience.

Although signs point to a better year for supply chains in 2023, improving resilience is critical to ports’ success and the continuity of trade flows. Methods for future-proofing ports’ competitiveness and profitability are two-fold: ensuring consistent, intelligent operations and delivering these services in line with increasingly stringent environmental mandates.

New regulation requirements are putting further emphasis on ports being able to provide greener solutions. The California Air Resources Board’s new compliance requirements for the At Berth Regulation came into effect on January 1, 2023, meaning that container, reefer and cruise vessels, already included under the existing rule, are transitioning to the new regulation.

EU Emissions Trading Scheme formalise within its Green Deal. These ambitions also sit alongside growing political pressure in the US and across major ports in South East Asia to regulate emissions, including NOx and PM, better.

Yet, ensuring a reliable power supply is challenging for many ports. The electricity connections in many ports aren’t up to scratch or have their supply compromised.

For example, ports with close connections to nearby major cities with their own huge electricity demands ports lack the power, with regional blackouts to blame. Add to the mix climate change and the subsequent impact of adverse weather events on ports.

Hurricanes on the Gulf Coast, for example, have become regular causes of blackouts.

Solving this challenge requires power sources that are flexible and reliable.

Ports must also balance reliability with competitiveness when looking at ports’ ability to handle certain cargoes. Over the next three years, Drewry expects seaborne refrigerated cargo growth of 3.7% per year, double that of dry bulk. However, unless there is reliable power to refrigerated cargoes, the cold chain will break, and perishable products will quickly spoil.

Traditionally, ships’ auxiliary engines have provided this power, but there is increasing pressure from consumers and residents of port cities for green electricity instead.

Shoreside power – if it’s sustainable and from green sources – radically reduces the emissions from fossil fuel-powered auxiliary engines of ships at berth. Ports such as Los Angeles – working in partnership with CARB – have demonstrated leadership in this area and shown what’s possible.

Pressure is now piquing amongst European ports to retain customers within a new regulatory climate. There are growing concerns, as raised by the Federation of European Private Port Operators in December 2022 that the scope of the EU ETS and FuelEU could harm the competitive position of the region’s terminals with shipping companies potentially diverting cargoes to non-EU ports to save costs. Enabling clients to meet environmental requirements and maintain profitability is crucial, and low emissions shoreside power plays a role in EU ports’ defence.

Similarly, momentum is gathering around the European Commission’s plans “to regulate access of the most polluting ships to EU ports and to oblige docked ships to use shoreside electricity” as plans for the

15

UK PORTS DIRECTORY AUTUMN 2023

UK PORTS YEARBOOK 2024

In July, the European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO) outlined what it sees as the major challenges for the roll-out of shore power.

They mainly relate to the cost of deploying onshore power supply and the lack of business case, even if all OPEX costs are charged for, and a depreciation cost for the infrastructure is borne by the users.

Additionally, at this stage, there is usually not enough grid capacity to provide several vessels at the same time. Where onshore power installations are in place, the price is currently often preventing users from plugging in. Moreover, in most countries, the port authorities pay a fixed cost all year long for large capacity that they often only need during a few months (e.g. the cruise season).

Connecting and disconnecting operations differ between ship segments. On container terminals, there is staff permanently available; on cruise terminals, there is not, says ESPO. Therefore, extra staff are required on the quay during the connecting and disconnecting operations as well as in between on standby in case of emergency.

These operations require skilled workers, and the weight of the cables implies that at least two people are needed.

making the long-term planning and investment complicated. Installing a fit-for-all system does not seem possible.

The regulatory hurdles of introducing new technology into ports are vast and complex with this variety of stakeholders.

This is a demand that e1 Marine is positioned to meet through the development of its containerized methanol to hydrogen generator. But bringing new solutions to maritime applications is a long and complex journey that is building a bank of new learnings and adaptations along the way – many of which relate to many other renewable energy or technology initiatives.

For one example, we have found that integrating components of different levels of maturity can be a challenge. There is also no uniform code that can be resourced for the acceptance of this new technology into any facility. While standards and regulations can be available for certain components, no regulation governs the integrated units combining new technologies.

Having a working integrated product is key.

Vessel owners and operators understandably want tangible products and are hesitant to commit to ideas on paper. They are enthused about feasible and available products within reasonable time frames and not in the early stages of development. In this regard, e1 Marine has the advantage of having a working prototype system available through one of our stakeholders, Element 1 (a land-based containerized energy unit) and the Hydrogen One tugboat.

The containerized unit’s design must be adopted to fit local markets and conditions, not just in terms of product output, voltage, frequency etc., but also in compliance with local regulatory requirements, port authorities, city authorities, state international marine regulations etc.

The successful development and implementation of clean, renewable energy sources to meet the growing demands for green shoreside power is ultimately dependent on collaboration and new ways of working between all stakeholders: developers, port authorities, port operators, local authorities and end users. Change is happening, and although there is a reluctance to be a first mover and trial the use of new solutions, especially if the financials work differently, it is evident that ports that aren’t improving their resilience and sustainability risk losing business that will be hard to attract back

The shore power infrastructure is tailor-made for every ship type, says ESPO,

In January 2023 the UK and Scottish governments jointly announced the creation of 2 new Green Freeports in Scotland. The Firth of Forth Green Freeport, and the Inverness and Cromarty Firth Green Freeport

19

UK PORTS YEARBOOK 2024

What are FREEPORT’S? Freeports are special areas within the UK’s borders where different economic regulations apply. By delivering investment on specific sites benefitting from tax and customs incentives, Freeports will create thousands of high-quality jobs in some of our most disadvantaged communities. These sites have been carefully selected for their suitability for development by local authorities and key private partners and sit within an outer boundary, which represents the geographical location within which the benefits of Freeports are targeted and does not in itself confer any special tax, customs or other status.

Countries around the world have adopted Freeports or other kinds of Special Economic Zones (SEZs), but the government has worked in partnership with ports, businesses, local authorities, and wider stakeholders through a public consultation to develop a highly ambitious, world leading Freeports model for England.

Our Freeports model will include a comprehensive package of measures, comprising tax reliefs, customs, business rates retention, planning, regeneration, innovation and trade and investment support.

Eligible businesses in Freeports will enjoy a range of tax incentives, such as enhanced capital allowances, relief from stamp duty and employer national insurance contributions for additional employees.

These tax reliefs are designed to encourage the maximum number of businesses to open, expand and invest in our Freeports which in turn will boost employment.

Freeports will benefit from a range of customs measures, allowing imports to enter the Freeport custom sites with simplified customs documentation and delay paying tariffs. This means that businesses operating inside designated areas in and around the port may manufacture goods using these imports, before exporting them again without paying the tariffs and benefit from simplified customs procedures.

Freeports will provide a supportive

planning environment for the development of tax and customs sites through an extension of permitted development rights and incentivising use of local development orders.

The government will also support Freeports with innovation, with all businesses within Freeports able to access direct engagement with relevant regulators including the Freeport Regulation Engagement Network.

Here is a breakdown of the range of policy levers available to Freeports:

regulators, minimising bureaucracy and uncertainty. Innovation in Freeports creates new markets for UK products and services, and drives productivity improvements, bringing jobs and investment to Freeport regions.

Tax Eligible businesses will have access to a suite of tax reliefs including Business Rates, Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), Employer National Insurance Contributions (NICs), Enhanced Structures and Building Allowance and Enhanced Capital Allowances designed to incentivise new investment within the boundaries of Freeport ‘tax sites’.

Trade and investment The Department for Business and Trade will provide targeted and specific trade and investment promotion support to Freeports, helping them attract and secure investment and exporters.

Business Rates Retention The council area in which the Freeport tax sites are located will be able to retain 100% of the business rates growth above an agreed baseline. This will be guaranteed for 25 years, giving councils the certainty, they need to borrow and to invest in regeneration and infrastructure that will support further growth.

Planning Freeports will provide a supportive planning environment for the development of tax and customs sites through locally led measures such as Local Development Orders or permitted development right development.

Innovation To support innovative firms to navigate regulation as they develop, test and apply new ideas and technologies, business within Freeports will enjoy direct access to relevant regulators through a Freeport Regulation Engagement Network. This will enable an early engagement between businesses and

Seed capital Each Freeport will be granted up to £25 million of seed capital funding, primarily to be used to address infrastructure gaps in tax and/or customs sites that are holding back investment.

As an example, some Freeports will use these levers to accelerate investment in offshore wind, which will attract national and international manufacturers and developers of offshore wind turbines. Bringing manufacturing to these areas will create well-paid jobs for local people, while also harnessing green energy to use in the freight sector supporting clean growth and helping to realise government’s Net Zero ambitions by 2050.

There is no deregulatory agenda in Freeports, our Freeport model ensures that the UK’s high standards with respect to security, health and safety, workers’ rights, data protection, biosecurity, tax avoidance and the environment will not be compromised. Freeports – in the same way as every other business in the UK – will have to adhere to the UK’s high regulatory standards. Moreover, Freeports will be subject to an annual audit, by HMRC and Border Force, to make sure security measures continue to meet the high standards expected from Freeport operators to mitigate security risks across physical, personnel, and cyber domains. ■ Britain’s Global Gateway

DP World Targets 100M TEU Capacity as It Adds 3M More TEUs This Year

P

orts operator and logistics giant DP World is in the race to hit 100 million TEUs in total gross capacity across its global footprint. By the end of 2023, they expect to add approximately three million TEUs of new container handling capacity getting them closer to the overall goal.

The company which likes to call itself a global trade enabler, currently manages approximately nine percent of the world’s handling capacity and ranks among the top five global port operators. The additional three million TUEs capacity will increase the company’s total gross capacity to 93.6 million TEUs.

UK PORTS YEARBOOK 2024

The additional capacities due before the end of the year will include Caucedo in the Dominican Republic where the company will add 1.2 million TEUs, Yarimca in Turkey where it is projecting an additional 579,000 TEUs, and Sokhna in Egypt where it is adding 500,000 TEUs. Another 200,000 TEUs will be added at Jeddah in Saudi Arabia.

DP World is also set to commence operations at Indonesia’s 600,000 TEU Belawan New Container Terminal (BNCT) in North Sumatra by the end of the year. The company intends to increase BNCT’s capacity to 1.4 million TEUs and attract more direct calls, thus reducing reliance on

regional hub ports, and strengthening its position as a major trade and logistics gateway in the Malacca Strait, which is a major shipping route.

The new capacity, coupled with an aggressive push by DP World to secure more port concessions across the globe, puts the company on track to reach 100 million TEUs. The company has already secured one concession this year after it was awarded the deal to develop, operate and maintain the Tuna-Tekra mega-container terminal at Deendayal port on the western coast of India. The terminal has a capacity to handle 2.19 million TEUs annually.

“We are committed to investing in our infrastructure to meet the growing demand for trade. These capacity additions will further strengthen our position as a leading global supply chain solutions provider connecting economies, businesses, and consumers around the world,” said Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, DP World CEO.

DP World Targets 100M TEU Capacity as It Adds 3M More TEUs This Year

DP World’s capacity expansions come as UNCTAD is projecting a slowdown in global trade growth for the second quarter of 2023 driven by recently downgraded world economic forecasts and factors such as persistent inflation, financial vulnerabilities, the war in Ukraine, and geopolitical tensions.

This comes on the backdrop of a positive rebound in the first quarter of the year during which trade in goods went up by 1.9 percent from the last quarter of 2022, adding about $100 billion.

“Overall, the outlook for global trade in the second half of 2023 is pessimistic, as negative factors dominate the positive,” states UNCTAD’s latest Global Trade Update.

The company has already secured one concession this year after it was awarded the deal to develop, operate and maintain the Tuna-Tekra mega-container terminal at Deendayal port on the western coast of India. The terminal has a capacity to handle 2.19 million TEUs annually.

Despite the lowered outlook for the near term, DP World is buoyed by medium-term prospects in global trade. The company expects that although current risk factors of inflation, increased cost of living, and geopolitical uncertainties are causing concern about global trade, that demand will remain for faster, more resilient supply chain solutions. According to supply chain advisor, Drewry, global container throughput will grow to 932 million TEU by 2025, up from 858 million TEU in 2021.

“We have to take a longer-term view of global economics, looking at how demand will change and how we can meet it in the most efficient way. Our medium-term target is to reach 100 million TEUs a year, subject to demand,” said Tiemen Meester, DP World, COO Ports & Terminals.

Apart from physical expansion, the company is also focusing on digitalization, implementing new technology and modern terminal operating systems. In March, DP World announced the first commercial use of its BOXBAY high-bay storage system at the Pusan Newport Corporation (PNC) terminal in South Korea where it has a 66 percent stake. The use of technology they believe will further increase capacity by automating and streamlining operations across each port, thereby enabling a greater flow of trade and more efficient processes.

Hapag-Lloyd Contemplates Bidding for HMM

N

umber-five ocean carrier Hapag-Lloyd may throw its hat into the ring for the acquisition of a controlling stake in South Korean rival HMM, according to reports in Korean and German media.

HMM is South Korea's only remaining global container carrier. The majority stake up for sale this month is held by state policy bank KDB and by Korea Ocean Business Corporation, a government-chartered maritime finance company. They came to control HMM through a government bailout plan that began during the 2016 downturn, after the sudden collapse of Hanjin Shipping.

Between them, KDB and KOBC would own the equivalent of about 75 percent of HMM if all of their convertible bonds were transformed into stock, and they are selling about 58 percent.

Hapag-Lloyd has confirmed that it is evaluating opportunities for acquisitions, but it faces competition. There are five reported bidders to date, all Korean: SM Group, owner of the smaller carrier SM Line; Harim, the largest investor in bulker firm Pan Ocean; logistics businesses LX Holdings and Dongwon Group; and a consumer-goods exporter, Global Sae-A.

UK PORTS YEARBOOK 2024

File image courtesy DSME An acquisition by a foreign buyer would be a remarkable (and politically difficult) development for Korean shipping. One of the government's objectives in sustaining this national champion is to ensure availability of transport for Korean private enterprises.

During the late-pandemic cargo surge, HMM and the Korean Ministry of SMEs reached a deal to set aside space for smaller Korean businesses, ensuring their continued access to container slots in a red-hot freight market. At about the same time, HMM also partnered with government postal service Korea Post to set up a door-to-door export service for small and medium Korean businesses.

The chairman of SM Group has pledged to buy and grow HMM for the benefit of South Korea, so long as the price does not exceed $3.5 billion. “Considering my age of 72, I have decided to buy HMM as my last mission — to reinvigorate our nation’s shipping industry by making us Asia’s No.1 shipping company," SM Group Chairman Woo Oh-hyun

UK Government scheme shot-in-the-arm for shipbuilding It is expected to generate a range of new projects, creating hundreds of jobs and creating fresh stimulus in the shipbuilding sector.

Nusrat Ghani, Minister for Industry and Economic Security, commented: “Shipbuilding is an integral part of the UK’s industrial identity and through this scheme we are backing our great maritime businesses to get ahead of the competition. from Government, and it will empower the UK’s shipbuilding enterprise to compete fairly on the global stage in doing what it does best: building Great British ships.”

The Shipbuilding Credit Guarantee Scheme (SCGS), recently launched , will see the UK Government acting as a guarantor for lenders in the shipbuilding, retrofit, and repair sectors.

“With cutting-edge vessels designed and built here in the UK, this will be a boost to high-skilled careers and every company involved in the supply chain for shipbuilding, helping us to grow the economy,” she added.

Separately, Defence Secretary, Ben Wallace, said: “As I set out in the National Shipbuilding Strategy Refresh, this scheme will help build confidence in UK shipyards, allowing them to invest in the people and the technology to drive productivity forward in this vital sector of the UK economy.”

The strategy was welcomed by Maritime UK CEO, Chris Shirling-Rooke. “We applaud the Government for delivering on the pledge it made to industry in the National Shipbuilding Strategy Refresh by launching the Shipbuilding Credit Guarantee Scheme.

Case study

Port Penrhyn (North Wales) Dry Dock - National Grid & Dickies Boat Yard

Scope Alpha works initially involved the removal of an existing ramp and jetty from the Dickies Boatyard in Bangor, North Wales.

The steel encased piles were to be left in situ for possible reuse.

The works involved the careful management of falls from height off the quayside, tidal flows in the dock and movement of dock traffic. To provide protection and access, handrailing and fencing was used on the quayside with a floating pontoon temporarily installed to facilitate the works.

New Jetty with floating pontoon

On completion of the demolition works, testing was undertaken by Alpha to determine future safe loadings capacity. The results were such that the owner of the boatyard commissioned a design to provide a boatlift pier in place of the old jetty. Alpha assisted with developing the design to provide an intrinsic temporary works system for the concrete shuttering. Other works involved miscellaneous steelwork for access, fender tracks and provision of permanent pontoon.

Following Demolition of existing jetty

UK Ports Organisation welcomes Brexit dividend with the removal of EU port services rules We welcome the news that the legislation on port services provision will be revoked in the UK by the end of the year. It suggests the move will help maintain the competitiveness of British ports and help keep a flexible and open system for port users.

Despite many of the customs and borders challenges the UK ports sector has faced since the UK’s departure from the EU, this is one development that can be viewed as a genuine Brexit dividend.

The legislation was introduced at the tail end of the UK’s membership of the European Union and the Department for Transport has today confirmed will be revoked under the recently passed Retained UK Law Act. This will enable UK ports to continue to use British rules on governance and maintain their existing flexible regimes and arrangements with service providers.

The Department for Transport today confirmed that following a consultation last year the 2017 Port Services Regulation and the Ports Services Regulations 2019 would be repealed at the end of this year under the provisions of the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Act 2023.

As a framework contractor working buildings, material handling facilities, for National Grid and Western Power Distribution, or as a subcontractor working for high voltage electrical substations and the key technology provides in this sector, we have worked extensively across thefacilities. national energy from waste electricity networks for more than 25 years.

We have considerable experience of undertaking works in substation environments at voltages from 11kV to 400kV. Our works have included modifications, extensions and new build substations. Our highly trained, experienced workforce and specialist supply chain have now completed over 200 high voltage T&D projects and we are widely regarded as experts in this field of construction.

Energy Sheringham

Energy Storage As the push for energy (in this case electricity) from renewable sources continues to place demand on the national grid as a result of intermittent delivery of power into the system, it is becoming a increasing challenge and a source of civils and building works activity.

As a result, the storage of surplus ‘off peak’ energy for release back into the grid at times of high demand is becoming essential to the network.

There are various emerging technologies aiming to tackle this. We have been involved with a number of battery storage schemes, containerised solutions, and within an adapted building. Also we have delivered an innovative system involving the use of super-cooled and liquified air as the storage medium.

Port of Sunderland is owned and operated by Sunderland City Council and is one of the UK’s leading municipal ports. The port consists of a 265-acre site situated on the south side of the River Wear.

Positioned at the heart of the North East coastline, Port of Sunderland is just minutes from open sea providing a gateway to the world. Its accessibility from sea teamed with excellent road, rail and air links, makes the port ideally placed for import and export projects.

The port regularly handles commodities such as steel, wood pulp, construction materials, aggregates etc.

With deep water berths open 24/7 and large ship capability, the port can play a major role in supporting the offshore and renewable energy sector, as well as providing comprehensive port operations services and potential for operations and maintenance activities.

Developments within the port’s estate have included the progression of infrastructure enabling works to deliver two ‘shovel ready’ development sites comprising 20 acres of Enterprise Zone approved areas with recently reinstated rail connectivity.

DP World, a leading provider of global end-to-end supply chain solutions, is taking the innovative step of directly incentivising customers to move their imported goods off the road and onto rail in a major new initiative, strengthening its ambition to be the most sustainable logistics business in the UK.

The ‘Modal Shift Programme’ is designed to increase the attractiveness of intermodal rail for customers through the use of carefully designed financial incentives. The programme has the potential to prevent an estimated 30,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide being emitted per year, more than three times the total emissions of DP World’s logistics hub at Southampton, where it will be trialled from September for an initial period of 12 months.

John Trenchard, UK Commercial & Supply Chain Director at DP World, said: “DP World in the UK has been a market leader supporting our supply chain partners with access to a comprehensive network of rail options to connect our logistics hub to inland locations across the UK. However, over the last few years there has been gradual decline in the share of rail. Through the Modal Shift Programme we aim to increase the rail share up towards 40% by the end of 2025 – removing an estimated 30,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide from our customers’ onward supply chains.”

“DP World will mitigate the impacts of climate change by becoming a net zero logistics organisation by 2050.

Today’s announcement will help customers on their own decarbonisation journeys and supports the UK Government’s stated ambition to drive the modal shift from road freight to more environmentally sustainable alternatives like rail.”

The Modal Shift programme will charge a flat £10 fee on all import-laden containers. Customers whose container is moved to a railhead more than 140 miles from the terminal are reimbursed, and a £70 incentive is paid to those whose container is moved to a railhead within 140 miles of the terminal. The market economics for using intermodal rail for distances of 140 miles or more from Southampton already make sense. However, for deliveries within the 140 mile zone the economic difference is less clear, and this incentive aims to increase the likelihood of a modal shift to rail.

DP World operates the UK’s most advanced logistics hubs: two deep water ports at Southampton and London Gateway with access to freight rail terminals, and a rapidly expanding logistics park on the doorstep of the capital.

Southampton enjoyed its greenest ever year in 2022 after delivering a 55% reduction in net carbon emissions from its fleet and installations after eliminating fossil diesel from its operations and transitioning to Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), a low emission diesel fuel alternative. The £350m new fourth berth under construction at London Gateway will be the first all-electric berth in Britain when it opens next year.

DP World’s investment in rail at Southampton and London Gateway eases traffic congestion, with 300,000 truck journeys taken off UK roads each year. Last year it launched a new weekly rail freight service connecting the two terminals, which takes up to 120 lorries a week off the roads, cutting carbon emissions by 80%. These UK initiatives have contributed to DP World’s global carbon dioxide emissions being reduced by 5% in 2022, with a 20% reduction in the European region alone.

NexGen has been created to disrupt the one-dimensional strategies of Governments in the UK, Europe and globally to deploy heat pumps, which in some cases are proving ineffective, in a sector where the energy crisis has driven record levels of fuel poverty.

Through scaled economics, thermal efficiency, absolute granular controls and long term zero maintenance, we aim to reduce the cost of through life operation by 50% against heat pumps, providing life changing economics for people in fuel poverty and organisations working to tackle it. We believe warmth for all, 4-Life, is a necessity, not a luxury.

What we do While we are prioritising retrofit in social and public sector housing in the UK and overseas markets, in new build housing we are looking to motivate developers to future proof homes and buildings with our sustainable heating system.

NexGen is agnostic to building type, we are starting to mobilise our technology in schools, universities, healthcare and public and private sector buildings – our continual aim is low energy costs, lower through life cost of ownership with a future proof system that lasts 4-Life whilst lowering CO2.

Thermal Road Repairs Thermal Road Repairs: Decarbonising the asphalt repair industry.

Thermal Road Repairs offers a high output, low emission, zero waste, permanent solution to asphalt defect and pothole repairs.

Unlike other methods, Thermal Road Repairs offers a right first-time solution. Our heaters produce a homogenous repair with a seamless thermal bond, stopping water ingress and failures. Our process is fast, efficient and cost effective and can be used on any asphalt type.

With no cutting, sawing or jackhammering we are not only great for use in built up areas, but we offer low HAVS and noise pollution.

And because there is just 1 self-contained vehicle it means we limit any impact in or around the port and avoid multiple vehicles traveling to and from the site.

Our heaters are designed so that they can repair asphalt defects and potholes not just around the port but also in between the containers.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do and we are always looking to lower our carbon emissions and environmental footprint.

Our low emission repair process offers carbon emission savings of more than 85%, compared to traditional methods.

Our process is zero waste, recycling 100% of material in the pothole or asphalt defect, meaning there is no waste produced or taken from site, with only a minimal amount of asphalt added to replace any that is missing from the area.

Our vehicles are fitted with solar panels, harnessing energy for our heaters and vehicle itself. And our heaters are not only fitted with solar panels but also run on biofuel, further reducing our carbon footprint.

Thermal Road Repairs: Decarbonising the asphalt repair industry.

Thermal Road Repairs offers a high output, low emission, zero waste, permanent solution to asphalt defect and pothole repairs.

Unlike other methods, Thermal Road Repairs offers a right first-time solution. Our heaters produce a homogenous repair with a seamless thermal bond, stopping water ingress and failures. Our process is fast, efficient and cost effective and can be used on any asphalt type.

With no cutting, sawing or jackhammering we are not only great for use in built up areas, but we offer low HAVS and noise pollution.

And because there is just 1 self-contained vehicle it means we limit any impact in or around the port and avoid multiple vehicles traveling to and from the site.

Our heaters are designed so that they can repair asphalt defects and potholes not just around the port but also in between the containers.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do and we are always looking to lower our carbon emissions and environmental footprint.

Our low emission repair process offers carbon emission savings of more than 85%, compared to traditional methods.
