Between 2015 and 2019, the average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of the refrigerated cargo carrier fleet globally were decreasing. However, the average emission increase from 75.6 grams CO2 per TEU-kilometer in 2019 to 75.9 grams CO2 per TEU-kilometer in 2020. The year 2021 saw an even stronger annual growth in CO2 emissions, reaching 81.9 grams CO2 per TEU-kilometer.
