    Maybe they'll use the coal for reforming hydrogen, you know .... so they can call it 'clean'

    "The all-electric cargo ship will be used primarily to transport coal to generating stations along the Pearl River."

    At first a paradox, but if cost effective and/or legislated, all-electric shipping could grow significant market share in the shipping industry as with those land based vehicles we witness today.
