Zero is on a break this week, so we're bringing you an episode from the Bloomberg Australia team. Tasmania is now home to the world’s largest battery-electric ship, a 130-metre ferry powered by more than 250 tonnes of batteries. Bloomberg Australia host Rebecca Jones talks to David Stringer, APAC Managing Editor for ESG and Green, who toured the vessel and met veteran shipbuilder Robert “Bob” Clifford. They explore how this remarkable project came together, whether electric ferries can transform global shipping, and what Tasmania’s maritime innovation could mean for an industry under pressure to cut emissions.
