As of 2021, there was a negative correlation between the size of a container ship and its CO2 emission intensity. The smaller the container ship, the larger CO2 emission intensity it had. Post-Panamax vessels with a capacity of 14,500 TEU or more recorded the lowest CO2 emission intensity in 2021, amounting to nine grams of CO2 per ton-mile.
