NYK becomes first Japanese shipping line to complete a carbon-neutral voyage

NYK has become the first Japanese shipping company to complete a carbon-neutral voyage by offsetting 5,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), equivalent to the CO2 emitted by NYK’s environmental flagship car carrier Aries Leader during one voyage between Japan and the Middle East. Aries Leader is equipped with the latest energy-saving technologies, which the company claims reduces CO2 emissions per unit by 30% compared with existing large pure car carriers, comparing emissions on a per car basis. In this initiative, the remaining CO2 emissions not yet eliminated by technology were offset by carbon credits.
