This study examines the choices made by marine transportation companies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on the St. Lawrence Seaway. A qualitative approach was adopted for this study. It consisted mainly of collecting data through semi-structured interviews with St. Lawrence Seaway companies. A thematic analysis was used to give meaning to the data collected as part of this study. The results show that most of the companies’ choices focus on energy efficiency measures, with little emphasis on alternative energy. They also reveal that some companies surveyed are not involved in the energy transition to reduce their GHG emissions.
