Largest green-fuelled ship at Tacoma harbour


The Northwest Seaport Alliance (NWSA) welcomed the “Maersk Alette”, the largest ship to ever call at Tacoma Harbor. The vessel, with a 16,592 teu capacity, operates on green methanol, highlighting a shift toward sustainable shipping. It is the fifth dual-fuel vessel in Maersk’s fleet.

 

The NWSA is committed to reducing seaport emissions by 2050 and enhancing infrastructure to support cleaner fuels. The Alette’s arrival demonstrates Tacoma’s readiness to handle large, eco-friendly vessels, furthering the global decarbonisation of the maritime industry. (pb)
