CMA CGM to develop an electric barge solution to serve Vietnam operations
7 hours agoThe CMA CGM Group is building a brand-new zero-emission inland waterway transport solution in Vietnam, featuring a 100% electric barge powered by batteries and a charging infrastructure powered by a new solar farm at the deep-sea terminal of Gemalink.
The e-barge will transport goods between Binh Duong and Cai Mep, on a 180 km round trip, achieving zero greenhouse gas emissions and avoiding 778 tons of CO2 annually.
CMA CGM is partnering with NIKE on its commitment to use the e-barge for transportation of NIKE products from Binh Duong Province to Gemalink.
The e-barge, with NIKE’s commitment to use, helps CMA CGM achieve its goal of Net Zero Carbon by 2050, and promotes decarbonization of maritime activity.
More generally, it reinforces CMA CGM commitment in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, contributing to local economic development with stronger and greener supply chains.
