In line with the UN Paris Climate Agreement and the EU Green Deal, ATS, MPET and PSAA aim to reduce their carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 with 2019 as a baseline and have net-zero emissions for all their terminals by 2050. This next stage is supported by PIONEERS, a project funded by the EU and coordinated by the Port of Antwerp-Bruges.

For EVs to deliver their full emission-reducing potential, the battery supply chain must be as clean as possible, and cathode active materials (CAM) are a key part of the sustainability equation. However, at the start of its useful life an EV tends to come with a higher “carbon backpack” because of the battery. How do we do this?

The elevated investment outlook is attributed to falling costs and policy support from governments looking to shift towards low-carbon economies. By 2030, IHS Markit expect that green hydrogen costs could drop below $2/kg where it would compete with hydrogen produced from natural gas with carbon capture.

A maximum concentration of 450 ppm carbon dioxide (~550 ppm CO 2 equivalent) in the Earth’s atmosphere is commonly cited as the limit at which average temperatures can be held at 2 ºC, and many emissions reduction proposals are based upon these two “upper bounds” targets.
