Japanese shipping giants join forces for ammonia-fuelled car carrier quartet

Seven Japanese companies, including Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK) and Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha (K Line), have partnered to build four ammonia-fuelled car carriers and establish a bunkering network. The vessels, scheduled for delivery in 2030, mark a significant step in commercial shipping's adoption of alternative fuels. The project aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable shipping practices.
