No negative impact on climate
We are working towards no negative impact on the climate. Our target is to reduce our fossil CO2 emissions by 30% by 2030.
A word from our CEO
For us at Stena Line, sustainability means the ability to sustain three key areas over the long term: the planet, the humans, and our business.
It also means taking responsibility. We know that our operations have played a role in creating climate change, so it is only fair that we are part of the solution. We also realise that as a major company, we possess the ability to drive change and so we share the responsibility to ensure the protection of human rights. This applies not only to our employees but to everyone associated with us. Moving forward, we will intensify our commitment to ensuring human rights and environmental responsibility across all our supply chains. We do it because we want to keep connecting Europe, and make sure there is medicine in the hospitals, food on the shelves, construction materials for the buildings of tomorrow, and that people can travel to see their loved ones. We also do it because we can, and therefore we must.

Embedding sustainability across our business
Led by our Head of Sustainability Maria Tornvall, everyon at Stena Line is responsible for delivering our sustainability strategy, according to the ambitions set out by our Group management team and Board. Stena Line also has a sustainability council responsible for driving specific targets and focus areas.
The list
Here you will find the big little things that we have done on our journey towards a more sustainable future.
Started collecting data with Fuel Management System
The Fuel Management System, often referred to as FMS, consists of more than 50 onboard sensors and meters, providing detailed information on everything from vessel speed to ventilation-system electricity consumption. The data can then be analyzed by captains and engineers who continuously work on improving the results. Stena Vision on the route between Karlskrona and Gdynia was the first of our vessels to get the upgrade in 2012.
AI assisted vessels
Stena Line is using artificial intelligence in a pilot project to find out how we can support our captains and officers to save fuel and reduce carbon emissions. Read more here.
Removed single-use plastic bottles onboard
By installing water purification filters onboard all our vessels, we’ve reduced the need for single used plastic bottles. That’s just one of the big little things we do for a sustainable future.
Calculate your carbon emissions
At Stena Line, we’re working relentlessly on being a leader in sustainable shipping. Right now, we’re working on a solution to calculate CO2 emissions for both passengers and freight.
