Toll Group, a global leader in transportation and logistics, has unveiled Singapore’s first decarbonisation hub dedicated to electric supply vessels. This initiative, developed in partnership with Yinson GreenTech, marks a significant step towards sustainable port operations and aligns with Singapore’s Green Plan 2030. The 12-month proof of concept is expected to reduce emissions by up to 80% per trip, saving over a tonne of CO₂ per trip.
The hub integrates electric marine transport, smart warehousing, and efficient cargo lorrying into a digitally connected operation. This ensures clean and responsive logistics for customers in Singapore, one of the world’s most dynamic logistics hubs. Jonathon Kottegoda-Breden, President Asia Logistics at Toll Group, stated, “By establishing Singapore’s first decarbonisation hub dedicated to electric supply vessels, we aim to enable broader adoption of green maritime technologies, reduce fossil fuel dependency, and cut emissions throughout the region.”
Strategically located near Changi Airport and Singapore’s Eastern Anchorages, the hub enhances rapid air-sea connectivity and efficient trailer access. Purpose-built charging infrastructure and smart cargo handling equipment will maximise uptime and ensure predictable turnarounds for time-sensitive cargo. Rajeev Sood, Executive Vice President – Energy, Marine & Renewables at Toll Group, added, “By integrating electric vessels with smart infrastructure and digital processes, we’re showing how sustainable solutions can deliver both operational efficiency and significant emissions reductions.”
The launch event featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony and a product tour, highlighting the hub’s advanced infrastructure and electric vessel technology. As Toll Group advances sustainable logistics, it remains committed to supporting businesses worldwide.
