Environmental discount on the port tariff

The Port of Gothenburg offers a discount to vessels that report good environmental performance. Two separate environmental indexes – Environmental Ship Index (ESI) and Clean Shipping Index (CSI) – form the basis for the discount.

Vessels that have at least 30 points according to ESI or have at least CSI class 4 receive a 10 per cent discount on the port tariff based on GT.

Environmental discounts are obtained provided that registration has been carried out in accordance with the provisions of ESI (www.environmentalshipindex.org) or CSI (www.cleanshippingindex.com).

If you have any questions regarding our environmental discounts, please contact us via miljo@portgot.se.
