Sustainable solutions
Stolt Tank Containers (STC) has set an ambition to reduce Scope 1 and 2 carbon intensity at wholly owned depots by 50% (relative to 2020 baseline) by 2030 and reach net zero CO2e emissions by 2050.
To support this, we have a dedicated sustainability workstream with a defined strategy linked to three priority Sustainable Development Goals: Climate Action, Clean Water and Sanitation, and Life on Land. The strategy includes testing and implementing new systems, exploring more sustainable fuels and modes of transport, and partnering with customers and external stakeholders to reduce emissions.
In 2024, we renewed our membership of Smart Freight Centre (SFC) and are taking part in the Clean Cargo Working Group, which aims to reduce the environmental impact of global goods transportation and promotes responsible shipping.
Where possible, we use renewable energy and biofuels across our operations and we are exploring new green technologies and processes across all our operations. At our wholly owned depots in Kaoshung, Taiwan and Mumbai, India we have installed solar panels. In Moerdijk, the Netherlands, we are using wind energy electricity and biodiesel. At Grangemouth, UK, 100% of the energy is sustainable, supplementing the biodiesels already in use.
