How DP World Is Advancing Environmental Stewardship Across the Americas in Port News 23/04/2026 Each Earth Day, global conversation around climate action sharpens. For the trade and logistics sector, the question is no longer whether to act, but how quickly meaningful, scalable solutions can be delivered. Across the Americas, DP World is answering that call. Through clean energy innovation, ecosystem protection, and measurable emissions reductions, teams across the Americas are embedding environmental stewardship into the core of how trade moves. Decarbonizing Operations: From Hydrogen to Electrification DP World is accelerating the shift away from diesel-dependent operations, deploying both next-generation technologies and proven electrification strategies. In Canada, DP World piloted a hydrogen fuel cell-powered crane at the Port of Vancouver, a breakthrough initiative that signals the potential for zero-emission cargo handling equipment at scale. Across Latin America, decarbonization is already delivering measurable results: In Brazil, DP World electrified 13 rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes at the Port of Santos, cutting diesel consumption by up to 60% and significantly reducing emissions In the Dominican Republic, an on-site 5,120-kilowatt (kW) solar photovoltaic plant is expected to reduce carbon emissions by more than 3,527 tons annually. The installation will also increase the share of the site’s energy generated from on-site solar to 10%, reducing reliance on fossil-based power. In Peru, DP World’s Callao terminal reduced its carbon footprint by approximately 22%, even as cargo volumes increased. This was driven by a multi-phase electrification program, including the deployment of three electric pickup trucks, five forklifts, 20 internal transfer vehicles (ITVs), and 12 electric rubber-tired gantry cranes (RTGs), alongside the installation of charging stations and a busbar system. In parallel, 10 RTGs from the terminal’s existing fleet were retrofitted for 100% electric operation. In Peru, DP World is advancing zero-emission landside logistics. Its growing fleet of electric trucks at the Port of Callao has already completed the equivalent of 18 round-the-world trips with zero emissions, demonstrating how decarbonization can extend beyond the terminal gate and across the supply chain. Together, these efforts reflect a regional strategy that combines innovation with scale – deploying solutions that are both forward-looking and immediately impactful. Protecting Marine and Coastal Ecosystems Operating at the intersection of trade and nature, DP World is also advancing solutions that protect biodiversity across coastal regions. At DP World’s Prince Rupert terminal in Canada, a partnership was formed with Ocean Wise to support whale protection through the Whale Report Alert System (WRAS) – a real-time tool that helps vessels reduce the risk of ship strikes and underwater noise disruption. Across Latin America, similar ecosystem-focused initiatives are delivering impact at scale: In Ecuador, DP World helped place more than 900 hectares of mangroves under community stewardship, protecting critical coastal ecosystems and strengthening marine biodiversity. The company is also piloting innovative “Living Seawalls,” a nature-based solution designed to enhance marine biodiversity along port infrastructure. By integrating specially designed habitat panels into seawalls, the initiative helps restore marine ecosystems in urbanized coastal envi
