RightShip and AD Ports Group join hands for Maritime Emissions Solution
The solution calculates ships' emissions within port and terminal facilities and highlights opportunities to reduce environmental impact
RightShip, the world's leading environmental, social and governance (ESG) focused digital maritime platform, has announced a partnership with AD Ports Group (ADX: ADPORTS), the leading facilitator of global trade, logistics and industry, to deploy RightShip's Maritime Emissions Portal (MEP) in its portfolio of world-class ports.
MEP is a groundbreaking digital solution that combines Automatic Identification System (AIS) vessel movement data with RightShip's unique vessel insights. The solution calculates ships' emissions within port and terminal facilities and highlights opportunities to reduce environmental impact. MEP gives critical assistance and access to unparalleled maritime datasets to help ports and terminals effectively measure and manage their emissions. This asset is crucial in supporting decarbonisation strategies that align with global, regional, and national targets.
RightShip's MEP uses an energy-based modelling approach, following the guidelines of UNEP and UNFCCC, to calculate vessel-based emissions. Emissions are calculated across four operational modes, at specific points of interest and against emissions targets defined by ports and displayed in a versatile digital tool.
