To be counted as a green corridor for the purposes of this tracker, initiatives must meet the Getting to Zero Coalition definition of being “a route on which the feasibility of zero-emission shipping is catalysed by public and private action”. Specifically, they must:
- Work toward the use of zero-emission fuel or energy for primary ship propulsion,
- Support the commercialisation of non-commercial fuels or energy sources in shipping,
- Feature a high level of cross-value chain collaboration, including close engagement and input from national/regional governments,
- Call themselves a green corridor from their point of initiation,
- Focus on zero emission ocean-going vessels.
Further information about the progress and role of green corridors can be found in the Getting to Zero Annual Progress Report on Green Shipping Corridors.

Additional Green Shipping Corridor Tools and Resources
The tools and resources provided below are developed and maintained by members of the Mission Innovation Zero-Emission Shipping Mission. These resources are intended to help accelerate green corridor formation through partnerships, knowledge access, and better coordination.
If you are interested in developing a green shipping corridor, you need not start from scratch! Collected here are numerous reports and analyses that provide processes and frameworks for green shipping corridor development and investigation.
Green shipping corridors require strong partnerships across different regions, countries, and even continents. This interactive map allows interested partners and stakeholders to more easily find one another to pursue green shipping corridor formation.
