Trans-Pacific shipping lane targeted as green corridor

It was decided that these two ports would work together based on cargo volume; the port of Los Angeles has been the busiest container port in the Western Hemisphere for the past 20 years, and its top trading partner in terms of cargo volume is China. In terms of container throughput, the Port of Shanghai is the world’s largest port.

The trans-Pacific corridor is the busiest container shipping lane in the world, making it an ideal shipping lane to focus on for one of the first green corridors. Setting up green corridors will be vital to enable early adoption of shipping decarbonization solutions.
