What is Real Zero?
Net Zero is a widely used approach to decarbonisation that allows companies to purchase credits or offsets to balance their emissions. But too often, these credits reduce emissions on paper – not in practice.
Real Zero is exactly what it sounds like: zero emissions. Fortescue has a comprehensive plan to reach Real Zero across our Scope 1 and 2 terrestrial emissions by 2030.
The Power of Real Zero
Real Zero has clear and compounding benefits.
We're developing the technology to deliver Real Zero.
Fortescue Zero develops the cutting-edge technology to replace diesel and gas at scale, from smart batteries to advanced vehicle systems and more.
Green mining
We’re proving that you can still mine the metals needed for a green transition, without the emissions burden. Project Roadrunner is our battery electric haul truck prototype which is powered by a 1.4MWh battery, developed in house by Fortescue Zero. The truck can be charged in just 30 minutes using our 3MW fast charger.
Green shipping
90% of the worlds shipping trade accounts for 700Mt of global emissions. We’re proving it can be reduced with our Green Pioneer – a prototype ammonia-powered vessel.
Intelligent batteries
A green world will need lots of batteries. We’re building the software that unlocks their untapped potential, delivering for both businesses and the planet.
The world needs to move faster.
