Burando Energies, a premier supplier of Sustainable Marine Fuels (SMFs) in Europe, has announced a strategic partnership with Dachser, a global leader in logistics. This collaboration aims to spearhead a new era of sustainability in the logistics sector by leveraging Environmental Attribute Certificates (EACs) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Under this partnership, Burando Energies will supply Sustainable Marine Fuels for container ships, documented by EACs. These advanced biofuels are made exclusively from waste and by-products, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint. Independently audited and verified, the EACs allow companies to showcase Scope 3 emissions avoidance by supporting the use of renewable energy sources, regardless of their operational location.
The Book-and-Claim System
The initiative operates under a certified book-and-claim system, which decouples the environmental benefits of renewable energy from its physical usage. This allows businesses to contribute to renewable energy adoption, even in regions where such fuels are unavailable. The flexibility and global applicability of this system provide companies with impactful tools for addressing climate change.
Nick de Haan, Head of Decarbonization Strategies at Burando Energies, emphasized “Insetting through Environmental Attribute Certificates is the future for companies committed to genuine carbon reduction. Our partnership with Dachser sets a powerful example of how businesses can adopt this innovative approach to drive sustainability and meet their emissions goals, no matter where they operate.”
Andre Kranke, Head of Research & Development at Dachser, added “The decarbonization of sea freight continues and will be one of the major challenges in logistics. One viable option is the use of advanced biofuels that are made of waste and by-products only. We are offering our customers the book-and-claim option so they can take action and make a contribution to more climate-friendly sea freight today.”
Impact on Sustainability
By utilizing EACs from Burando Energies, Dachser’s sea freight customers can seamlessly integrate sustainable practices into their operations, demonstrating a strong commitment to decarbonization and compliance with environmental regulations. This partnership signifies a major step towards a more sustainable future for the global logistics industry.
This collaboration showcases how cross-industry partnerships can pave the way for meaningful climate action and inspire other organizations to embrace sustainability.
