Fresh Water Management
The Company recognizes that water resources are a critical component of the ecosystems where the Company conducts its business. The Company is committed to lowering fresh water obtained ashore. To reduce the freshwater received from shore-based sources, the Company produces freshwater through freshwater generators on board each vessel. A freshwater generator is used for the conversion of seawater into freshwater through a vacuum distillation process.
Target & Performance: The Company has set a goal of reducing freshwater purchased from shore-based sources by 25% by the year 2029 compared to a 2019 baseline year. The Company will take measures to reduce freshwater consumption on board by encouraging ships’ crew to minimize wastage of freshwater.
