About this listen
During this podcast, we introduce you to the Neoliner Origin, a modern wind-powered RoRo (Roll-on, Roll-off) cargo ship that just completed an Atlantic crossing with rigid sails and a diesel-electric backup. It transports vehicles, containers, and refrigerated goods while aiming for up to 80 percent lower emissions than traditional ships. The motivation isn’t romance; it’s economics: lower fuel risk, regulatory resilience, and reliable operation. Like autos and agriculture, winners in shipping are those designing for efficiency that pays off.
