environmental performance. By 2023, alternative fuels will account for at least 10% of our energy mix.
KEEP INVESTING IN RESEARCHING THE ENERGIES OF THE FUTURE CMA CGM is deploying an ambitious R&D program to move towards zero emission solutions for transport and logistics. Our roadmap includes four main areas: energy efficiency;
optimization of our network, in particular through data mining and artificial intelligence; a
new concept of container ships operating progressively with
zero-carbon energy; and the development of a supply chain for new zero-carbon energies. In order to make adequate technology available to carriers, we call ongoing discussions to design the EU taxonomy enabling more efficient funding flows for
the development of less emitting energy sources.
PRESERVING MARINE BIODIVERSITY The oceans are as much a part of our lives as they are essential to our activity. We are continually working to reduce the impact of our activities on the oceans and preserve biodiversity. To avoid
posing a greater threat to the fragile Arctic environment, we decided as early as 2019 that none of our vessels would use the Northern Sea Route. By joining the Global Compact, we have also joined the Sustainable Ocean Business Action Platform, its technical network dedicated to marine issues, as well as committed to the Sustainable Ocean Principles. In partnership with the Reef Restoration Foundation in Australia, we launched a program in 2021 to help coral regeneration and support the Great Barrier Reef.
