☆ Giant kites could pull ships across the ocean – and slash their carbon emissions
  + stars: | 2023-06-30 | by ( Mark Tutton | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
CNN —You may have seen kitesurfers in action, harnessing the power of the wind to pull them over the sea. After years of research, they are currently testing the kite on a cargo ship traveling between France and the US. The company has received €2.5 million ($2.7 million) in funding from the EU, and says it already has orders from Airbus and Japanese shipping company “K” Line. He adds that savings will become more pronounced as ships transition to green fuels, which are more expensive than fossil fuels and take up more space, because they are less energy dense. “It’s also a huge enabler for future green fuels,” argues Bernatets.

☆ From giant kites to foldable wings, here's what container ships could look like by 2050 as companies race to decarbonize their supply chains

Shipping giants are racing to find scalable green alternatives to gas-guzzling container ships. Other shipping giants are betting big on green methanol fuel derived from agricultural waste.

By comparison, conventional container ships can handle loads of over 38,000 tonnes. ©PIRIOU / courtesy of TransOceanic Wind TransportBut as more shoppers prioritize sustainability, some big name brands are pledging to use sustainable cargo ships once the designs become a reality.
