Gothenburg Port Authority extends and renews port tariff environment discounts

In 2015, the Port of Gothenburg introduced an environmental discount on the port tariff in an effort to increase the number of calls by ships running on liquefied natural gas (LNG). Several major LNG investments have been made since then, including initiatives by a number of Swedish shipping companies. This has had a positive impact on the environment, including reduced emissions of sulphur dioxide, particles and nitric oxide into the air in western Sweden. The Gothenburg Port Authority is now set to extend the discount period and is already outlining a renewed environmental discount.
