AD Ports reports emissions reduction success

AD Ports Group’s recently published 2025 Sustainability Report highlights the significant progress the company has made in its decarbonisation efforts, including a 6% reduction in emissions intensity per unit of revenue. This has been achieved by mitigating the environmental impact of its activities, through measures such as increased operating efficiencies and the use of solar electricity, lower impact maritime fuels and electric-powered vessels.

In 2025, the Group adopted a decarbonisation pathway covering all of its operations with 139 initiatives planned between 2025 and 2050. The pathway is aligned with the Paris Agreement goal of limiting global warming to 2°C and supports the UAE Net Zero 2050 strategic initiative. The initiatives are backed by a projected investment of US$ 636 million over 25 years.

Captain Saif Al Mheiri, Abu Dhabi Maritime CEO and Group Chief Sustainability & Risk Officer of AD Ports Group, said: “Defining a pathway to net zero across a global business of AD Ports Group’s scale is a significant achievement and reflects our commitment to sustainable growth and value creation. By embedding decarbonisation into our business strategy, we are positioning the Group for lasting emissions reductions while strengthening operational resilience and competitiveness, and the progress achieved to date reinforces our conviction that sustainable growth is achievable at scale.”
