Robotic ship
Yara and technology company KONGSBERG teamed up with the ambition to build the world's first autonomous and zero-emission container vessel. With the aim of reducing diesel-powered truck haulage by 40,000 journeys a year, Yara Birkeland will reduce NOx (Nitrogen oxide) and CO2 emissions, improve road safety, reduce road dust formation and reduce traffic noise while transporting fertilizer from Yara's factory in Porsgrunn, Norway to the export port in Brevik, Norway. On November 18, 2021, Yara Birkeland took its first and only trip to Oslo before it is put into operation.
