Royal HaskoningDHV also helps decarbonize ports in response to demand for greener and more sustainable operations.
Through their mission Enhancing Society Together, they take responsibility for having a positive impact on the world and contribute to 13 different UN Sustainable Development Goals. The maritime green port solutions specifically contribute to SDG7 (clean and affordable energy), SDG13 (climate action), SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities), and SDG17 (partnership for the goals).
