    I don’t think this is about what’s powering the ships but rather their cargo.

      But at least the ships need a non-renewable source. And they are going to need some of it in every country they visit. How do we get oil to every country if not by ship? That’s a lot of pipelines if we go that route. But maybe that is the answer.

        But at least the ships need a non-renewable source.

        Why would they? Seems like a solveable problem to me, most likely via green H2, but also with big ass batteries (most likely for shorter ranges at first).

        We have to reach net 0 come what may, so there will have to be clean power in any port they visit at some point.
