MPA, partners kick off talks on establishment of green and digital trans-Pacific shipping corridor

The corridor will support the deployment of low- and zero-carbon ships.

The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), Port of Los Angeles, Port Long Beach and C40 Cities have begun discussions on the establishment of a green and digital shipping corridor between the Lion City and the San Pedro Bay port complex.

“The trans-Pacific corridor is one of the busiest trade routes in the world. MPA is pleased to support the development of a green and digital shipping corridor with the USA through the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach, given their strong connectivity and existing initiatives with C40 Cities,” MPA Chief Executive, Teo Eng Dih, said.

The corridor will focus on low- and zero-carbon fuels for bunkering and digital tools to support the deployment of low- and zero-carbon ships.

In addition, the corridor will catalyse investment in green infrastructure, including zero-carbon energy hubs linked to port and shipping demand.

Apart from the establishment of the corridor, MPA and its partners will also work on accelerating the deployment of low- and zero-carbon emission solutions, identifying digital shipping programmes, and developing green fuel sources for bunkering to support efficient cargo movement.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
