cargo-partner’s Environmental policy cargo-partner's management has defined environmental responsibility as just as important a corporate goal as cargo-partner group's economic management. While the company's financial goals certainly remain unchanged, the challenge consists in successfully incorporating environmental goals into the company’s overall strategy. Measures and activities to avoid climate change are a priority.
cargo-partner’s Environmental policy Therefore, we focus on energy efficiency, waste prevention, and waste separation as well as on the environmentally conscious use of operating resources at all our subsidiaries. The environment and climate change are global issues that require mostly global answers. The Association "Environmental cargo- partners" founded by cargo-partner provides the platform needed to achieve this goal. We use our clients' environment-related demands as guidance and commit to complying with the existing legal framework.
The cargo-partner way Creation of (internal) awareness Optimization of transport Reduction of transport’s energy consumption Sustainability generated by efficiency:
Creation of (internal) awareness Driver‘s training for those, who use a corporate car, including top management (– 32 to CO 2 /a) Driver‘s training for all employees with their private cars (– 24 to CO 2 /a) Change in heating installation (calorific boiler), daylight control of lighting (– 11 to CO 2 /a) Free-cooling IT Server-room (- 9 to CO 2 /a) Procurement regulations: e.g. company cars (- 18 to CO 2 /a) Biogas light truck (- 11 to CO 2 /a) Electric car ( - 4 to CO 2 /a) Savings of 109 tons CO 2 per year
Mobility Tesla Roadster Immediately available Currently only e-car with sufficient range 250 – max. 400 km Battery: 6831 Li-Ion- Accumulators Electro mobility – to set an example
Optimization of Transport Load efficiency of vehicles Rail instead of truck for pre- and onward carriage ( to CO 2 /a) Container shift to ocean line companies with ‘slow steaming’ to reduce fuel consumption ( to CO 2 /a in 2008) Shift from air to sea freight (where appropriate) Savings of to CO 2 per year
Modal Shift - The CO 2 footprint kg on 3 palettes from area Trnava, Slovakia/EU, to Melbourne, Australia Air cargo: via Frankfurt – kg CO 2 Rail to Hamburg and sea cargo – 500 kg CO 2
Reduction of transport‘s energy consumption “We assume, that transport is hardly to be substituted under current trade and prosperity” New technologies are necessary: Research & development
Conclusions Governmental aid for research and use of carbon-mitigating technologies Creating a public opinion which prefers climate friendly products and transports. CO 2 calculating standards: Creating a common European and/or global standard
