“What we set out to achieve is to have a more green management style and work culture, investment in green shipping for sustainable operations, and integrate green shipping into the One Belt One Road strategy,” Ding added.

Ding pointed out that since 2011, CSG has scrapped 182 elderly ships with a combined tonnage of 5.25m dwt. In its container shipping business, the group’s fleet of 19,000 TEU new containerships are consuming less bunker fuel compared to the 5,000-TEU capacity boxships, and the mega-sized ships are equipped with cold-ironing systems for total emissions elimination.

Ding added that apart from CSG, a few other Chinese owners are also working hard to cultivate a green business approach, which would enhance the overall efficiency of shipping operations.
