How our customers can reduce their shipment's CO2 emissions with GoodShipping.
Shypple offers a variety of projects to its clients, and among them, a standout initiative is the sustainable biofuels project, conducted in collaboration with GoodShipping.
How does this program work?
This strategy employs "insetting," a method through which we reduce CO2e emissions within the very sector they originate. This allows GoodShipping to shift your shipping operations from fossil fuels to truly sustainable biofuels, effectively decarbonizing them.
To put it plainly, they introduce an equivalent volume of sustainable biofuel into a vessel, usually powered by fossil fuels, matching the CO2e emissions that your shipment would have produced. The price for sustainable biofuels is set at 145 euros per ton of emitted CO2e.
Fuel Transition
GoodShipping facilitates this transition by introducing sustainable biofuel into carriers that would have traditionally utilized fossil fuels to transport your goods. This follows the Mass Balance Principle.
Mass Balance Principle
Carbon insetting adheres to the Mass Balance Principle, signifying that the specific location where fossil fuels are substituted with biofuels doesn't impact the overall atmospheric outcome.
Under this principle, we can efficiently replace fossil fuels at the most suitable time and place within the sector, allowing you to continue your business operations as usual.
Why did Shypple choose to partner with GoodShipping?
GoodShipping, headquartered in the Netherlands, recognized the significant role of the global logistics and transportation industry in contributing to more than a third of the world's CO2e emissions. This makes it the primary source of pollution in many developed nations. To combat climate change, the transportation sector must take immediate action to reduce emissions. However, viable options for carbon-neutral cargo transportation remain scarce.
GoodShipping empowers cargo owners and freight forwarders by offering the world's first insetting service, designed to reduce scope 3 emissions within the transportation sector.
Here's why sustainable biofuels are a compelling choice for emission reduction:
• Waste and residue-based only
• No competition with food
• No direct or indirect land use change
• No deforestation or biodiversity loss
• No higher quality application possible
• Minimum of 75% co2-reduction
• No negative social or legal impacts
Credibility and validation
We furnish an official CO2e reduction certificate, substantiating the precise emission reduction achieved through the fuel transition. This certificate adheres to industry standards and is independently verified by auditors.
Why did Shypple choose sustainability biofuels?
The biofuel employed is classified as a second-generation sustainable biofuel since it is derived from certified feedstock identified as waste or residue. This eliminates concerns related to land use, competition with food production, or the need for deforestation in biofuel production.
