Maersk, LR and ports of Felixstowe and Charleston study nuclear-powered box ships

Summary

Lloyd's Register, Maersk, and the ports of Felixstowe and Charleston have launched the 'Pink Corridor' initiative to examine security and safeguarding needs for a theoretical nuclear-powered containership route between the UK and US. The study assesses ship security, cyber resilience and emergency response rather than building a vessel, probing a long-term decarbonisation pathway for transatlantic trade.
