"Shipping is an extremely efficient way to move bulk goods around the planet,
but it's responsible for around 3% of global man-made carbon emissions, and the
unique energy requirements of long-haul cargo ships make them extremely
difficult to decarbonize.
There are all manner of technological solutions in the pipeline: hydrogen,
green ammonia and methanol powerplants, flettner rotors, heaving oscillators...
There's even been a return to giant sail-wings, as well as giant autonomous
kites designed to pull ships along and save fuel.
But that's what makes the Blue Visby Solution so fascinating; you don't have to
alter the ships at all. You just pilot them differently. "
