Grimsby has welcomed the first deep sea car carrier powered by sustainable fuels.
New build vessel MV Auto Achieve, owned by United European Car Carriers, brought a cargo of Kia vehicles to Grimsby River Terminal.
The multi-fuel liquefied natural gas and battery hybrid boasts a carbon dioxide emission reduction of around 25 per cent, sulphur dioxide and particulate matter by 90 per cent and nitrogen oxide by 85 per cent. She can also run on bio-LNG and synthetic fuels as these become available.
