https://tube.loping.net/videos/watch/e7f33714-801e-4834-87a7-1ac6a04c4774 In July 2021, Evergreen Marine took possession of the world's biggest container ship: the Ever Ace. Built for Taiwan-based Evergreen Marine, the ship is as long as the Empire State Building is tall from bottom floor to roof. With a carrying capacity of 23,992 twenty-foot-equivalent units or TEU, these Evergreen A-class megaships take the record - set just the previous year - from HMM's Algeciras-class ships. It can hold 10% more cargo than the infamous Ever Given, that one ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal. These ships herald a new era of ultra-large container ships. And it is a bit of a surprising trend. What is pushing these container ships to get bigger? And is there anything keeping them from getting even bigger down the line?
