PORT DECARBONIZATION SERVICES
Our services are designed to help ports worldwide meet their net zero aspirations and comply with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Net Zero targets. Whether you need funding for port decarbonization or guidance on meeting sustainability goals, we are here to support you every step of the way.
WHY DECARBONIZE YOUR PORT?
- Securing Grant Funding: Being able to prove that your port has a net zero roadmap increases your chance of securing funding for advanced technology, equipment and solutions.
- Regulatory Compliance: Evolving global and regional regulations legislate the shipping sector to reach net zero by 2050.
- Increased Attractiveness for Investment: Sustainability can lead to cost savings, attract eco-conscious partners, and bolster your reputation.
- Enhanced Efficiency: Analyzing port operations and implementing new technology will improve efficiency and cut costs within your port.
AVAILABLE FUNDING
With the recent announcement of $3 billion Clean Ports Grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a huge effort is underway to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from port activities and improve air quality. The first step of any decarbonization plan is to map out baseline emissions, and this can be complex for Ports with many, separate stakeholders. This is where Tunley’s experience and expertise can come in. Tunley has been successfully delivering the Port of Detroit decarbonization project, where private terminals have no reporting obligations. Despite this and other challenges, we successfully collected raw data from 14 out of the 18 terminals, with individualized net zero plans for each terminal.
Tunley is motivated to work on similar, high impact projects. If you are seeking support form an organization with expertise in applying for funding, engaging stakeholders, baseline emissions reporting and related technical services, do reach out using the information on the ‘contact us’ page.

A PORT DECARBONIZATION CASE STUDY
The Detroit/Wayne County Port Authority is undergoing an ambitious decarbonization project in collaboration with Tunley Environmental, which will reduce the port’s environmental impact, and improve sustainability for Detroit and the surrounding area. The project is implementing a range of innovative technologies and methods to reduce emissions and promote cleaner energy sources, the electrification of port equipment, and the use of cleaner fuels, positioning the Detroit Port Authority as a leader in sustainable port operations. View the project in more detail.
