Renewable Energy Logistics

Renewable energy logistics covers the import, export and transport of equipment and materials used across the renewable energy industry. With over 35 years of freight forwarding experience, Wallis Shipping helps renewables companies move cargo for projects in East Anglia and around the world, supporting the infrastructure behind the energy transition.

Based in the East of England, close to major renewable energy developments and with easy access to Lowestoft, Felixstowe and London Gateway ports, our team is well placed to coordinate cargo for clients and suppliers across the UK and overseas.

Logistics solutions for the renewable energy sector

Power stations, dams, offshore wind farms, solar projects and water treatment facilities depend on the safe and timely movement of specialist cargo. Our renewable energy logistics solutions combine ocean, air, road and rail transport with project logistics, route planning, customs clearance, warehousing, packing and final delivery.

For oversized and out-of-gauge components, our project cargo team can carry out feasibility studies and route surveys, select suitable special equipment, and supervise loading and discharge during critical stages of transportation.

Global energy logistics for remote locations

Wallis Shipping has worked with global companies across the energy industry to deliver specialist materials to manufacturing hubs and project sites, including remote locations in the Pacific Islands, India and South America.

Through our global network of agents and suppliers, we develop tailored solutions for complex supply chains and remote sites. Careful planning, documentation and compliance help us manage transport challenges, reduce risks and control costs while keeping key components moving reliably to support a reliable energy supply.

On-site logistics operations and supply chain visibility

One of our longest-standing freight forwarding clients has worked with us for more than 20 years and is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of power and energy equipment. A specialist Wallis Shipping project logistics team works on site at the client’s premises, supporting day-to-day logistics operations and freight management.

Our Exportease software supports supply chain visibility by helping clients plan shipments, produce trade documentation, track cargo and access management reports. This gives businesses greater control over transport, warehousing, storage and delivery while improving efficiency and reducing the risk of avoidable delays.

Renewable energy projects we support

Each project has different cago, route, storage and delivery requirements. We build our logistics solutions around the equipment, destination, timescale and level of support required.
