en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 29, a 10,800-vehicle dual-fuel car carrier built by CSSC Guangzhou Shipyard International in collaboration with CSSC Trading was named and delivered in Nansha, Guangzhou. This is the third 10,000-vehicle class car carrier delivered in China, marking that the country has achieved batch and serial production capabilities in this field.
The vessel has an overall length of 230 meters and a beam of 40 meters. It is equipped with a dual-fuel propulsion system using liquefied natural gas and fuel oil, meeting the International Maritime Organization's Tier III emission standards, and features green, environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, safe, and reliable characteristics. The ship is configured with 14 garage decks, capable of flexibly loading diverse vehicle types such as electric vehicles, hydrogen-powered vehicles, and heavy trucks, with a maximum single-ship capacity of 10,800 vehicles. Calculated based on a standard vehicle length of 5 meters, the loaded vehicles, if placed end to end, would stretch over 50 kilometers.
In terms of green intelligence, the vessel is equipped with a 1450kW permanent magnet shaft generator independently developed by CSSC's No. 704 Research Institute, enabling "power generation while sailing." The shaft generator alone can meet the ship's navigation power needs without requiring the main generator to be turned on, thus saving energy. The ship also incorporates multiple energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, including hull line optimization, waste heat recovery, and a high-voltage shore power system. Additionally, it is fitted with an intelligent ship system that enables smart management of navigation, engine room, and cargo, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and safety.
After delivery, the vessel will undertake automotive trade transportation tasks between Asia and Southeast Asia, North America, and Europe. Through batch construction of car carriers, CSSC Guangzhou Shipyard International has continuously optimized production processes, overcoming key core technologies such as thin plate deformation control, hull precision control, hydraulic systems for roll-on/roll-off equipment, LNG dual-fuel systems, and shaft generators, resulting in a substantial improvement in production efficiency. To date, CSSC Guangzhou Shipyard International has secured orders for over 40 car carriers, 14 of which are 10,800-vehicle dual-fuel car carriers.
