Kuehne+Nagel achieve Norway’s first fully traceable biofuel cargo with ScaleAQ

In Norway, Kuehne+Nagel has been in a trusting partnership with Norwegian technology company ScaleAQ since 2014. Their shared ambition is to drive a sustainable future and has now resulted in Norway’s first fully traceable biofuel cargo.

ScaleAQ is a global technology supplier to the aquaculture industry worldwide, contributing to this success. The company’s commitment to sustainability and the environment reflects in their highly-compliant standards of aquaculture equipment. As part of ScaleAQ’s goals to identify new sustainable solutions they are embarking on a new biofuel journey with Kuehne+Nagel to reduce CO2e emissions for all their sea cargo.  

Kuehne+Nagel’s biofuel concept has made this next step possible for ScaleAQ by allocating an environmentally and socially corresponding next-generation biofuel made from waste-based feedstock to their cargo.

This Mass-Balance-Concept enables ScaleAQ to instantly avoid CO2e emissions from their entire supply chain. Mass balancing allows the consumption of biofuels on specific vessels and allocates fully traceable CO2e savings to specific cargo volumes. Kuehne+Nagel will work with leading carriers, energy companies and trading houses to provide ScaleAQ with this concept.
