Welcome to the Evolution Show!   Hope you are great!  Link to video version of this episode on Evolution Show on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnHQCC2YH4E I´m back after a longer break finalizing the construction drawings and plans for my really cool energy house that I hope to built in 2023!   But now I´m back with something that really excites me and that I hope can inspire others, a fully loaded episode about electric container ships!   Imagine large container ships leaving for example Oslo in Norway heading for Rotterdam with 1000 containers onboard but where 15 of the containers are fully packed with Lithum Iron Phosphate (LFP batteries) to run the whole ship with about 100 MWH of energy to take the ship more than 500 nautical miles before charging!    Well dream no more! Join me for this years Christmas/Special Holiday episode -where I´m joined by the Norwegian company ZEN OCEANS´s CEO and founder Fridtjof Camillo Eitzen!   Fridtjof is a fifth generation oceanic shipper with about 140 years of oceanic shipping experience in his family´s cargo! He shares not only how it can be done but how Zen Oceans are working to make it a reality with today´s battery technology and clever logistics planning and why he is convinced that it can be economically viable and in parity or well, even better than diesel/conventional container ships are today!   Now an idea I have is this: Imagine combining this with Einride´s autonomous heavy electric trucks/Pods without a cabin! Einride´s pods could be delivering fully loaded containers with Christmas presents (or even better: food items!) to large container terminals at harbour hubs such as Rotterdam in the Netherlands, where they can be loaded onto fully electric container ships such as the one´s Zen Oceans are developing (and yes in the future fully autonomous too!).   I mean, how cool and indeed game changing wouldn´t that be!? That is the future we should aim for!   More on Einride is coming up on the Evolution Show so stay tuned!  I wish everybody a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays and a Happy new 2023, let´s make it great and inspirational and take another small step to make this amazing Planet great again!    Cheers, Johan Landgren, host of the Evolution Show   Links for this episode:   About Zen Oceans: zenoceans.com   Previous episode about the world´s largest sailing ship for freight, the Oceanbird vessel, a talk with the CEO of AlfaWal Oceanbird:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WmwX5W_l5k    Previous Christmas special 2022, an episode with the super solar dude and inventor Ron Swenson:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrPDXnS-qjc  The team behind the Evolution Show:    Producer and host: Johan Landgren   Studio technician: Gustav Andersson   Music for animation: Alexander Sparf - roding.bandcamp.com
