DHL Express has announced the launch of GoGreen Plus, a new service that will allow customers to reduce the carbon emissions associated with their shipments through Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). This is a first for global express carriers and will initially launch in the UK, shortly followed by Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates. Starting this month, customers based in these countries can select GoGreen Plus when choosing their shipping service through MyDHL+, the company’s online shipping and tracking platform. The service is designed to be fully flexible and can be selected for individual shipments.
GoGreen Plus will become available to all DHL Express customers globally over the coming months, with customers being given the chance to tailor the CO2e reduction they want to achieve and the amount of SAF they use.
The new GoGreen Plus service is possible following DHL’s recent collaborations with BP and Neste to supply SAF to DHL Express hubs worldwide. The renewable part of the innovative fuel is produced from waste oils. Such SAF from wastes and residues can provide greenhouse gas emission reductions of up to 80 per cent over its lifecycle compared with the conventional jet fuel it replaces.
John Pearson, CEO of DHL Express, says: “We know our customers are committed to reducing their environmental impact, so it’s important we’re giving them the means to do so. I’m delighted that customers can fully leverage our investment in SAF to enable them to bring down the emissions of their shipments. SAF is currently the primary route to reducing carbon emissions in aviation, so this is the most effective way to help our customers make their supply chains more sustainable.”
Insetting through GoGreen Plus allows customers to reduce their Scope 3 emissions, the indirect greenhouse gas emissions that occur in a company’s value chain, including downstream transportation and distribution.
