ABP is consulting with stakeholders on plans to install a floating solar array in Cavendish Dock. The array will have a generating capacity in the region of 35-40MW of renewable power.

Green Cat Renewables, an environmental and engineering consultancy, have been commissioned by ABP to help develop and deliver the planning elements of the project.

ABP supports government ambitions to achieving Net Zero and recently launched its own £2 billion plan for Energy Transition growth and Net Zero 2040. Called Ready for Tomorrow, it looks to meet the challenges and grasp the opportunities. ABP has already reduced its own CO2 emissions by over 38% since 2014 and invested over £55 million in sustainability measures, which includes the largest commercial rooftop solar array in the UK at the Port of Hull, electric vehicles and cranes across the group and a new fleet of more fuel-efficient pilot boats.
