全球首艘智能型无人系统母船“珠海云”在广州下水。该船隶属于南方海洋科学与工程广东省实验室（珠海）。它可搭载数十台配置着不同观测仪器的空、海、潜无人系统装备，能在目标海区批量化布放，并进行面向任务的自适应组网，实现对特定目标的立体动态观测。未来，“珠海云”的投入使用将对改变传统海洋观测模式、获取实时立体海洋观测数据、提升海洋观测效率和水平具有重要意义，也将助力海洋高端科技人才的培养，并进一步提升海洋科技创新能力。

    The world's first intelligent unmanned vehicle carrier named Zhuhaiyun was launched in Guangzhou.The vessel, or IUVC, is owned by Southern Marine Science and Engineering Guangdong Laboratory (Zhuhai). The vessel can carry many unmanned air, sea and submarine vehicles and will be equipped with a range of observation instruments.The operation of the IUVC will change the traditional ocean observation mode, obtain real-time three-dimensional ocean observation data and improve the efficiency and level of ocean observation.It will also help to develop high-end marine scientific and technological talent and further improve innovation. 

    全球领先的可持续木质生物能源公司Enviva和日本商船三井（MOL）子公司Drybulk Ltd. 签署谅解备忘录，共同开发和部署环保型散货船（EFBC），以减少可再生木屑颗粒与生物燃料运输过程中的温室气体（GHG）排放。该型EFBC计划于2024年下水，它将同时采用旋筒帆（rotor sail）和硬翼帆（Wind Challenger）技术，预计将通过利用风能来减少20%的温室气体排放。

   Enviva Inc., the world’s leading producer of sustainable wood bioenergy, and MOL Drybulk Ltd. (MOLDB), a subsidiary of Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Ltd. (MOL), a leading global marine transport group, announced they have signed an additional memorandum of understanding to deploy an environmentally friendly bulk carrier(EFBC) to reduce the greenhouse gas(GHG) emissions in the ocean transportation of sustainable wood pellets and biofuels. Following a successful joint study phase, the EFBC is scheduled for launch in 2024 and will aim to utilize rotor sail technology developed by Anemoi Marine Technologies Ltd together with MOL’s ‘Wind Challenger’ technology, which would both reduce emissions by harnessing wind energy, for an expected average GHG savings of about 20 percent in total.
