The Greek fleet holds the key to decarbonising the shipping industry, said green tech business Njord as it opened a new office in Athens.

Njord, a joint venture between Cargill, Maersk Tankers, and Mitsui, has contracts with more than 30 owners to devise plans to cut emissions with about a third of them in Greece.

“The Greek fleet, which forms such a large proportion of the global fleet, is key to decarbonising the industry,” says Frederik Pind, Managing Director at Njord.
