Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT):
Launched in late 2019, the Coalition for the Energy of the
Future aims at accelerating the development of future energies and
technologies to sustain new green mobility models and reduce the
impact of transport and logistics on climate change. The Coalition
is pleased to announce the first milestones to be reached in
2021.
2021: A year of milestones with the development of the
Coalition's first 7 projects
2021 will be a structuring year for the Coalition and its
cross-industry working groups with 7 projects to be developed:
1. Green hydrogen: capitalize on Carrefour projects Cathyope and H2Haul to
experiment for the first time in Europe hydrogen-powered fuel cell long
distance zero-emission trucks and propose a consolidated order book for
goods' transportation on French and European roads by end of the first
semester in order to accelerate hydrogen availability,
2. Biofuel: propose and test the first bio-crude oil dedicated to maritime
needs to increase the use of Biofuel along the supply chain and develop
the use of 3rd generation biofuels,
3. Carbon neutral liquefied natural gas (LNG): draw a pathway for bioLNG
toward carbon neutrality, highlighting key issues to be addressed,
4. Green electricity: identify & convert along the global supply chain the
key elements (depots, terminals & warehouses...) into green
self-sustained entities to accelerate the electric conversion in the
transport chain,
5. Zero emission vehicles for road, air and sea transportation: share by the
end of the first quarter of 2021 a common vision and roadmap to develop
nnovative R&Dprojects around new energies such as Hydrogen or Ammonia,
6. Digital ecocalculator of the global transport chain: develop a digital
eco-calculator certifying door-to-door CO2 impact on any given
transportation routing as well as proposing low-emission alternatives,
7. Intermodal green hubs: propose a business plan to sustain port conversion
into new green multimodal hubs using lower-impact routing with greener
energy by end of 2021.
The 14 companies will continue to work closely together over the
coming months to develop new concrete projects going further in the
fight against climate change.
Airbus, Bureau Veritas and PSA International join the Coalition
for the Energy of the Future
2021 also marks the entry into the Coalition of three global
companies recognized worldwide for their involvement into the
emergence of technological innovations:
-- Airbus, an international reference in the aerospace sector and a pioneer
of sustainable aviation
-- Bureau Veritas, a world leader in testing, inspection and certification,
-- PSA International, a leading global port group and trusted partner to
cargo stakeholders.
They join AWS, Carrefour, CMA CGM Group, Cluster Maritime
Français, Crédit Agricole CIB, ENGIE, Faurecia, Michelin, Schneider
Electric, Total and Wärtsilä in the Coalition.
Together, they will bring the Coalition additional resources and
talents to take up the challenge of tomorrow's sustainable
transport and logistics.
"Airbus has a leading role to play in the ambition for
sustainable aviation, says Jean-Brice Dumont, Executive Vice
President Engineering, Airbus. "We are convinced of the benefits
that joint initiatives can bring in finding innovative solutions to
reduce the C02 emissions of our industry -- because we know this
challenge requires a collective effort. We believe this coalition
will foster the development of creative projects with effective
results that will pioneer new mobility models across the
sector."
According to Matthieu de Tugny, President of Bureau Veritas
Marine and Offshore, "Innovative projects and joint development
programs will be certainly vital to make sure we are ready for the
future. The different stakeholders and experience of this Coalition
certainly brings real power across the shipping sector & supply
chains to develop the innovative solutions we need. It is a
collective approach and all our efforts definitely need to be
connected to sustain new green transportation models."
Mr TAN Chong Meng CEO, PSA International, declares: "PSA is
proud to be a part of the Coalition, which is in line with our
mission to enable greener logistics choices for all by working with
like-minded partners. We are excited to support the development of
future energies and technologies, and to do our part to
collectively create a more sustainable future for transport and
trade."
With these additional members, the Coalition continues to rally
major industry leaders from different sectors and pursues its
ambition to accelerate the development of energies and technologies
sustaining new, lower-carbon models to reach carbon-neutral
objectives in transport and logistics.
An international coalition with a clear pathway towards carbon
neutrality
Launched in late 2019 during the French Maritime Economy
Conference (Assises de l'Economie de la Mer), and supported by
French President Emmanuel Macron, the Coalition for the Energy of
the Future aims at accelerating the development of future energies
and technologies to sustain new green mobility models to reduce the
climate impact of transport and logistics.
To achieve genuine technological breakthroughs with tangible
results by 2030, the Coalition's three main goals are:
-- To unlock a more extensive portfolio of clean energy sources;
-- To decrease the energy consumption per kilometer-equivalent of goods
mobility;
-- To reduce the proportion of emissions linked to transport and logistics.
