Environmental work
Ports of Stockholm works actively, long-term and strategically for sustainable port operations and shipping. Sustainability is an integral part of our daily business operations.
Do you have questions?
For Ports of Stockholm it is important to improve our own business operations and at the same time work together with the shipping companies, our tenants and other stakeholders to contribute to reducing the impact our customers have on the environment.
We enable our customers to reduce their environmental impact through:
vessel onshore power connection
offloading facilities for waste and sewage
environmental discounts
We reduce our own environmental impact through:
reduced emissions
increased waste recycling
energy saving
use of renewable energy, i.e. through solar cell systems
environmentally aware selection of materials and chemicals
