Green shipping corridor services

Turning ambition into action with a data-driven approach

Establishing green shipping corridors is essential for maritime decarbonization –  but moving from plans to implementation remains a challenge. Identifying opportunities, understanding barriers, and finding solutions are key to success.

At DNV, we take a practical, three-step approach to help stakeholders develop
viable green corridors, drawing from our extensive experience gained during projects across the globe.

Step 1: Collect and assess data

We analyze real-world data to identify and assess potential green corridors, focusing
on:

  • Ship traffic patterns, including vessel types, sizes, and cargo volumes
  • Fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
  • Techno-economic feasibility: total costs, fuel feasibility, fuel availability, port
    readiness and potential support mechanisms

Step 2: Onboard relevant stakeholders

Success depends on collaboration. We help to:

  • Establish partnerships across the corridor’s value chain
  • Identify and address corridor-specific barriers

Step 3: Build business case

We turn insights into action with:

  • Clear strategies to overcome key barriers
  • A tailored decarbonization roadmap outlining goals, roles, fleet transition
    strategy, and fuel supply

DNV's stepwise approach

Using our advanced modelling tools and cross-disciplinary expertise, we
support shipowners, operators, ports and fuel suppliers in navigating the maritime fuel transition – helping them to unlock business opportunities within green shipping corridors.

Our flexible approach adapts to your needs. While our three-step method provides the foundation in the initial phase, we also support green corridor projects through all phases, including implementation.

Let’s move from ambition to action together.
