On December 28, 2023, the newbuilds N997
and N998 were named and delivered in Yangzhou. They were named COSCO Shipping Green Water 01 and COSCO SHIPPING Green
Water 02, respectively.
The 10,000 dwt boxships are the first 700 TEU
river-sea pure battery-powered containerships independently designed,
developed, and built by Chinese companies.
The first ship was
launched in July 2023, while the construction on the second 700 TEU unit began
two months earlier.
The ships can transport up to 700 TEU while operating
on battery power throughout the entire voyage. They use a swappable battery
technology where the batteries are housed in containers that can be switched
out when the power is depleted. The
ships are currently outfitted with 24 batteries each in a 20-foot container and
can carry up to 36 units. The total battery capacity exceeds 50,000 kilowatt
hours.
After being put into operation, it is expected that a
single ship can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 2,918 tons throughout the
year, which is equivalent to the annual emissions of 2,035 cars, or planting
160,000 trees per year.
Each boxship is equipped with an intelligent ship
system comprising an intelligent integration platform, intelligent navigation,
intelligent engine room and the intelligent monitoring of the ship’s energy
efficiency. Featuring a length of 119.8 meters, and a width of 23.6 meters, the
two vessels are part of an effort to build an electrified network for shipping
along China’s Yangtze River, facilitate the green transformation of the
waterway and demonstrate green and zero-carbon shipping.
The first vessel recently obtained a certificate for
the first battery-powered river-sea direct ship from the China Classification
Society. It is expected to start operating in the Yangtze River, from Jiangsu
to Shanghai, shortly.
The project is said
to align with COSCO Shipping Group’s efforts to achieve the green, low-carbon
and intelligent transformation of the shipping industry, and promote green and
low-carbon development
