Associated British Ports enhances monitoring network with new EarthSense sensors

Associated British Ports (ABP) has doubled its current network by acquiring 11 Zephyr air quality sensors from EarthSense.

EarthSense has been providing services to ABP since July 2022, and its sensors comprise one of the UK’s largest privately owned networks of air quality monitoring devices.

The network of monitors is located at numerous ports, harbours, docks, and piers around the United Kingdom, supporting ABP to monitor air pollution levels and achieve its goal of being net zero by 2040. Lowestoft, King’s Lynn, Hull, Immingham, Troon, Barrow-in-Furness, Newport, and Barry are among the places of EarthSense’s network.

ABP can monitor, analyse, and make decisions on how to surpass national ambient air quality targets and make its ports sustainable by using EarthSense’s solar-powered Zephyr monitors in conjunction with MappAir modelling and the MyAir data platform. This is especially essential at ports near metropolitan areas, such as Southampton.

“Installing these new monitors allows us to expand and improve our network of air quality monitors and will help us meet the air quality targets we have set ourselves as part of our sustainability strategy, ‘Ready for Tomorrow’,” said Alan Tinline, ABP Group head of Health, Safety, and Environment.
