PortXchange launches emissions reporting tool for ports

PortXchange has announced the launch of its Port Emissions Report tool offering emissions analysis designed specifically for ports, incorporating a variety of transport modes.

The system can analyse emissions from vessels, harbour vessels, cargo handling equipment, railways and trucking. The software tracks ship movements, vessel types and associated emissions of pollutants such as CO2, CO, CH4, SO2, NOx, N2O, PM10, and CO2-equivalent greenhouse gases.

The analysis is intended to support ports in developing decarbonisation strategies by offering actionable data to guide corrective actions.

“We are dedicated to helping ports not only meet but accelerate their journey to net zero,” said Sjoerd de Jager, CEO of PortXchange.

“Historically, ports have operated in isolation, with fragmented data collection hindering progress. This launch marks a pivotal step towards creating a unified global standard for port emissions reporting, accessible to all ports, regardless of size or operational complexity.”

“We need a unified standard similar to those already established in other industries. We aim to boost transparency and promote greater collaboration across the industry, which is essential for making significant advances in decarbonisation efforts.”

The Port Emissions Report tool is available as a standalone product or as part of PortXchange’s newly introduced EmissionInsider Carbon Insight Suite.
