Zero-emission shipping start-up Veer Group will head to Germany to build the first wind-propelled container ships to cross oceans.
The Canadian firm has signed a letter of intent with Fosen Shipyard to develop, construct and purchase two wind-powered and hydrogen-assisted container vessels with cargo capacity of 150 teu.
“After a thorough, year-long tender process, our team is confident that Fosen is the best fit,” said Veer’s founder and CEO Danielle Southcott.
