Shipping giant CMA CGM has announced that it is creating the ‘Special Fund for Energies’ initiative backed by a US$1.5 billion budget to accelerate the company’s transition to achieve net zero across its supply chain by 2050.
The money from the fund will go to the development of new fuels with a lower carbon profile than traditional shipping fuels. CMA CGM will also be funding low emission mobility solutions across its entire business, including maritime; overland; air freight; port; and other logistics services.
