The world's first ever self-driving ship worth ₹162 crore will set sail along a 60 km route in southern Norway without any crew member in 2018. The electric-powered ship named 'Yara Birkeland' has a capacity for 100 to 150 shipping containers. The zero-emission ship will save up to 90% in annual operating costs by eliminating both fuel and crew.
