World's first commercial-scale "e-methanol" plant opens in Denmark

It said, the plant's annual production is enough to power one 16,000TEU container ship sailing between Asia and Europe.

For the smaller Laura Maersk, the world's first dual-fuel container ship, with a capacity of more than 2,100 TEU, requires only 3,600 tonnes of fuel per year.

The Laura Maersk was scheduled to fuel near Kasso on Tuesday.
