Saudi Ports Authority Implements Initiatives to Reduce Carbon Footprint
(MENAFN) The Saudi Ports Authority, also known as Mawani, has announced that it will be reducing crane movements in Saudi ports to cut carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 1,046 tons by the end of the year. The organization is working on reducing the average movement of yard cranes per incoming container required for manual inspection by 33 percent and reducing the turnover rate of trucks within the Jeddah Islamic Port by 17 percent. These initiatives aim to improve the port's operational performance, reduce carbon emissions, and lower logistical costs for port and maritime transport sector customers. Moreover, they support the Kingdom's initiatives to preserve the environment and establish a prosperous and sustainable marine sector.
Mawani's initiatives fall within the framework of the Green Ports Initiative, which aims to diminish energy consumption by 15 percent by reducing dependence on diesel to lower carbon footprint. The authority is known for presenting pioneering initiatives that are directly linked to the Saudi Green Initiative, which focuses on reducing emissions, supervising work to combat climate change, and facilitating community cooperation. Additionally, the authority works to strengthen partnerships between the public and private sectors to expand the scope of work in this field.
Mawani seeks to boost customer and beneficiary satisfaction, decrease logistical costs, and enhance the commercial attractiveness of the port on a global level. In 2022, Mawani, represented by the Jeddah Islamic Port, won the "Best Port in 2022" award and the "Digital Transformation" award at the International Green Shipping Summit Awards. These recognitions reflect Mawani's commitment to implementing sustainable initiatives and promoting environmental stewardship in the maritime sector.
