MAERSK's 18,000-TEU Triple-E vessels, to be deployed next year, have been presented with the Sustainia100 award at United Nations Rio+20 conference as one of the world's "top 100 sustainable solutions".
"We are thrilled that Maersk Line's next generation ships have been named to Sustainia100," said AP Moller-Maersk eco advisor John Kornerup Bang. "Our ambition to deliver solutions for economic growth in a low carbon economy is a strong driver for innovation in ship design."
The 20 Triple-E vessels, being built at Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering in Korea, will reduce CO2 emissions by more than 50 per cent per container, said the company.
