Core Features
Ports face growing pressure to reduce multimodal emissions with clarity, urgency, and practical insight. PortXchange's EmissionInsider materializes that ambition with a platform that turns fragmented data into actionable decarbonization intelligence. Its main features are:
Activity-based methodology: Calculates emissions using an activity-based approach (activity data + mathematical model), enabling consistent tracking across pollutants and time.
All-modal coverage: Measures emissions from sea-going vessels, trucks, rail and cargo-handling equipment, including voyage emissions and upstream/downstream impacts.
Heatmaps & top contributors: Visual heatmaps and “top emitters” reports by modality/facility, plus pollutant breakdowns (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, sulphur etc.) for targeted action.
Carbon Insight Suite & reporting: Customizable dashboard, a standalone Port Emissions Report for deep analysis, and unlimited users for cross-department collaboration.
Shore-power planning & scenarios: Estimates shore-power demand per facility and supports “what-if” decarbonization scenarios to inform investment decisions.
APIs & compliance-ready outputs: Port Emission API for integration, with guidance and reporting aligned to GHG Protocol and US EPA/CARB expectations as EU ETS pressure grows.
Closing Insights
Port of Rotterdam adopted EmissionInsider as launching customer to make transport emissions transparent across sea-going vessels, trucks, rail and cargo handling—demonstrating how a port can build a single, verifiable baseline for Scope 1–3 planning and investor-grade disclosures, and public air-quality commitments. In North America, PortXchange positions EmissionInsider to help ports keep up with EPA/CARB obligations and the GHG Protocol, pairing software with hands-on guidance during integration.
Recent momentum includes the September 2024 launch of the Carbon Insight Suite and a standalone Port Emissions Report, adding deeper analytics and unlimited user access for cross-department collaboration. Underpinning the product is a long-term partnership with BigMile for robust calculation technology. As EU ETS expands its practical impact on port communities, PortXchange reports rising demand for EmissionInsider.
As a certified B Corp with an active expansion program in the Americas and Europe, PortXchange’s outlook centers on actionable, real-time intelligence that turns emissions data into investment decisions while giving leaders credible progress narratives for boards and city stakeholders.
