Ports of Auckland

Decarbonisation Roadmap

Allowed Poal to Conform With Desired Carbon Reduction Targets

Problem

Ports of Auckland (POAL) has a vision to become a leading sustainable port at a global level. In line with this vision, POAL has committed to the Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi) to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and contribute POAL’s share to keep global temperature increase well below 2°C compared to pre-industrial temperatures. 


Solution

DETA Consulting partnered with Sapere research group to provide a roadmap for decarbonising POAL’s operations and modelled the financial costs associated with POAL achieving Science-Based Targets in the short, medium and longer terms. 

Outcome

This provided POAL the ability to build business cases for the preferred options to achieve the port's science-based target to conform with desired carbon reduction targets.
