Video - Zero-Emission Container Feeder Vessel

In a world increasingly dominated by the need to reduce environmental impacts, what role does shipping have to play? How can the industry best meet the challenges of reducing emissions, increasing efficiency, and minimising impacts?

To respond to the CO2-emission challenge, the Strategic Research and Development of GL Maritime Services has developed a design concept for a zero-emission container feeder vessel. The design concept addresses typical feeder services with a full open-top 1,000 TEU intake and 160 reefer positions at a service speed of 15 knots.
