Alternative maritime power for docked container vessels has made steady progress throughout the decade. But isn't it time more ports and shipping lines adopted the technology? asks Alex Hawkes. As the climate talks in Copenhagen draw to a close and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) comes under increasing pressure to address the shipping industry's carbon emissions, alternative maritime power (AMP) is looking an increasingly obvious solution.
