GoGreen Plus
Support meaningful progress in your sustainability efforts
Now more than ever, sustainability matters - to the planet, your customers, and your business's bottom line. We're offering a new way to transform your logistics with DHL Express GoGreen Plus, our solution to help reduce the carbon emissions from air shipments using Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
We use Sustainable Aviation Fuel made from renewable waste‑based feedstocks such as used cooking oilor or other renewable resources, that is specifically designed to be a substitute for traditional jet fuel.
Get Started with GoGreen Plus
Tailor your path to more sustainable shipping
If you're ready to start using Sustainable fuels such as SAF and HVO, to reduce the CO₂e emissions associated with your shipments, we offer two ways for your business to use GoGreen Plus.
How Does It Work?
Decarbonize your value chain with Book and Claim
Insetting allows businesses to account for Scope 3 CO₂e reductions within their transportation value chain through Book and Claim.
In contrast to "offsetting" - where businesses compensate their Scope 3 emissions through environmental programs like reforestation and habitat restoration projects - GoGreen Plus enables the allocation of certified Scope 3 CO₂e/GHG emissions reductions within the transportation value chain via Book and Claim, which is also referred to as "insetting".
Book and Claim
An integral part of insetting is the “Book and Claim” system. Sometimes, Sustainable Fuels such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) or Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) are not readily available for immediate use. Whether constrained by production capacity or costs, the “Book and Claim” system lets us decouple the environmental benefit from where the fuel is physically used
Fuel Tracking
When a sustainable fuel supplier produces Sustainable Fuels, they generate a Sustainable Fuel Declaration based on the quantity of sustainable fuel they make using renewable feedstocks. When we purchase Sustainable Aviation Fuel, we receive the Sustainable Fuel Decalaration, which allows us to claim the environmental benefits - such as the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions associated with this fuel - and pass them on to our customers through the Book and Claim mechanism.
Benefit Transfer
When you select GoGreen Plus for a shipment, your package might not have been shipped in a sustainable fuel powered aircraft or vehicle, but shipments somewhere in our global network did. Your purchase of GoGreen Plus replaced fossil-based fuel and reduced overall transport emissions - and you get the credit for that through an official GoGreen Plus CO₂e Reduction Certificate.
Certificates and Reports
