Riviera stated that the World Shipping Council (WSC) identifies green corridors as one of six pathways to achieve zero-carbon shipping, supporting bunkering facilities, fuel availability, and collaboration between stakeholders for rapid decarbonization. Key green corridors, such as those between Shanghai and the US West Coast and across Europe, are establishing essential infrastructure for zero-carbon fuels, with support from major ports, shipping lines, and government entities.
