Emissions
Shipping operations generate approximately 3% of total global carbon emissions. Reducing greenhouse gases and other air pollutants is a critical part of Berge Bulk’s environmental stewardship strategy.
We are leading the industry by piloting and scaling transformative decarbonisation technologies — with wind assisted propulsion, ammonia-ready vessels on order, B100 biofuel voyages, and our carbon capture and storage pilot all contributing to our goal of achieving zero carbon emissions fleetwide by 2050.
- Our Ambitions…
- Offset 100% of our scope 1 carbon emissions from 2025.
- Build and operate a zero carbon vessel by 2030.
- Achieve zero carbon emissions fleetwide by 2050.

Our Four Pillar Approach
Berge Bulk has mapped out a four-pillar ‘plan of attack’ to combat climate change and aggressively decarbonise of our fleet. We call it our Maritime Marshall Plan.
