The Secretary General of the International Maritime Organization stated that China's achievements in port electrification and green shipping have played a positive role in promoting global shipping carbon reduction.

Batch delivery of green ships

The Chinese self-developed Kun series 15000 box methanol dual fuel container ship has been delivered, which can reduce approximately 120000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually. The Tianshan large LNG ship adopts the latest dual fuel system, and the Innovative 19 is the first single methanol fuel river sea direct bulk carrier in China, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 90%.

Automated berths of over 10000 tons account for about 28%, achieving a transformation from following to partially leading. Keywords: strategic news and information, green shipping

Collaborative efforts in ship port energy and trade regulations

The new generation of marine wind turbine propulsion system independently developed by China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation has reached the world's largest specification, which can save 5% to 25% of fuel. China's installed capacity of new energy power generation has been the world's largest for several consecutive years, with photovoltaic capacity accounting for over 80% of the global total. In May 2026, the State Administration for Market Regulation released 19 national standards in the field of shipbuilding.
