Google and DHL have formed a partnership to collaborate on sustainable worldwide shipping to reduce emissions.
The initiative follows a pilot project around Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) last year and includes express shipping of Google devices, as part of Google’s push towards encouraging decarbonisation technologies in air transportation.
Google will adopt DHL’s GoGreen Plus service for all its future operations; a technology that uses SAF to enable customers to reduce the CO2e emissions associated with their shipments.
GoGreen Plus is currently supported by three of the industries’ largest contracts with BP, Neste, and World Energy.
“Google has a goal to achieve net-zero emissions across our operations and value chain by 2030. Optimizing how we transport Google devices around the world is a key part of this journey,” Google director of global transportation, Omar Molina said.
“That's why we're thrilled to collaborate with partners like DHL, who share our passion for Net-Zero. The SAF program is a big step forward in that direction”.
DHL CEO, John Pearson added: “By deploying SAF across our international network, we are pleased to offer the GoGreen Plus service to our long-standing partner Google. We are confident that this agreement and Google's meaningful investment will encourage others to take the same initiative and drive the transition to low-emission transportation services using sustainable aviation fuel.”
