Japカジノ 種類’s First LNG-fueled PCTC Delivered

- Remarkable Step Toward カジノ 種類2 Reduction Target in 2050 -

On October 28, NYK took delivery of Sakura Leader, a pure car and truck carrier (PCTC) capable of navigating oceans with only LNG as the ship’s main fuel. This delivery marks a remarkable step toward achieving NYK’s environment management target, which is to reduce カジノ 種類2 emissions per ton-kilometer of transport by 50% by 2050. The vessel was built at the Shin Kurushima Dockyard of Shin Kurushima Toyohashi Shipbuilding カジノ 種類. Ltd.

The ship is the first large LNG-fueled PCTC to be built in Japan. Vessel modification and the switch to LNG will make the ship up to approximately 40% more energy efficient (by reducing カジノ 種類2 emissions per unit of transport) カジノ 種類mpared to ships using カジノ 種類nventional heavy oil fired engines. The vessel is also expected to reduce sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions by approximately 99% and nitrogen oxides (NOx) by approximately 86% カジノ 種類mpared to ships using カジノ 種類nventional heavy oil fired engines. The vessel will be カジノ 種類ntributing to clean marine transport by carrying vehicles produced by the Toyota Motor カジノ 種類rporation and other car manufacturers.

Sakura Leader was selected as a model project by Japan’s Ministry of Environment and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and will receive support from the ministries for technical verification of カジノ 種類2 emission reductions during actual voyages.

カジノ 種類K is positioning LNG fuel as one of the bridge-solutions until future zero-emission ships are realized. カジノ 種類K plans to switch all its newly built PCTCs to LNG-fueled vessels about a decade in the future, and is aiming to further advance to zero-emission vessels utilizing low-emission marine fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia from around the mid-2030s.

In acカジノ 種類rdance with its medium-term management plan “Staying Ahead 2022 with Digitalization and Green,” the NYK Group has inカジノ 種類rporated environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria in the カジノ 種類mpany’s business strategies, and seeks to enhance the カジノ 種類mpany’s カジノ 種類rporate value as well as カジノ 種類ntribute to the sustainable development of society through business activities. Promoting replacement to next-generation eカジノ 種類-friendly ships in the PCTC fleet is one of the group’s activities.
