Laura Maersk – the first container ship is already sailing on green fuel

In September 2023. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen ceremoniously christened the world’s first container ship powered by green fuel, specifically e-methanol. As of February 2024. Another such ship will sail between Europe and Asia – from Hamburg to Shanghai and Tanjung Pelepas in Malaysia. This is an important step toward adapting maritime transportation to the requirements of a zero-carbon economy, and Laura Maersk is just the beginning.
