The ceremony took place at <strong>Tsuneishi Shipbuilding<\/strong> &#8216;s facilities in Japan, and was attended by Yuko Tsutsui, NYK&#8217;s executive director of sustainability, who officiated the christening of the vessel. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delivery of the first methanol-powered bulk carrier<\/h2>\n\n<p>The &#8220;<em>Green Future<\/em>&#8221; was built on behalf of <strong>Kambara Kisen<\/strong> and will operate under charter from <strong>NYK Bulk &amp; Projects Carriers<\/strong>. With a length of almost 200 meters, a beam of 32.25 meters and a capacity of approximately 81,500 m\u00b3, this vessel represents a leap in the shipping group&#8217;s environmental commitment. It is designed to run on <strong>marine methanol<\/strong>, an alternative fuel that minimizes greenhouse gases. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/wood-pellet-powered-vessel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">minimizes greenhouse gas emissions.<\/a><\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition to using methanol as fuel, the design contemplates the use of <strong>biomethanol<\/strong> and <strong>e-methanol<\/strong>, which can be produced from green hydrogen and captured CO\u2082. This makes the <strong>Green Future vessel<\/strong>, a model for energy transition within the dry bulk sector.   <\/p>\n\n<p>This project reflects the synergy between three players in the Japanese shipbuilding industry: <strong><strong>NYK Group<\/strong><\/strong><strong>Kambara Kisen<\/strong> and <strong>Tsuneishi Shipbuilding<\/strong>. The collaboration aims to strengthen the country&#8217;s technological competitiveness and promote real solutions towards cleaner transportation. <\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-60e0fae6-fde8-46d9-a5c9-f6186f6463dc\"><strong>Follow us on social media and don&#8217;t miss any of our posts!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-2ccd5b01-f7b0-41c7-bd84-5fb1552af18c\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Inspenetnetwork\">X (Twitter)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@inspenet?_t=8qqIL6dRGNR&amp;_r=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-03c3bba3-6a6e-4c18-8d58-9818f781c8f5\"><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyk.com\/english\/news\/2025\/20250514_02.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NYK Group<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By employing these technologies, the ship can reduce its carbon footprint, contributing to the international goals of decarbonization of shipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8404,"featured_media":256225,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13048],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-256245","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-maritime"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/256245","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8404"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256245"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/256245\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256225"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256245"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=256245"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=256245"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
