CHARLES ISLAND: CO₂ emissions 2018–2025

CHARLES ISLAND against its type

Built in 1993, it is 1 year older than the median refrigerated cargo carrier on this register, which was built in 1994 (183 vessels with a known build year). At 14,061 gross tonnage it is larger than 83% of the other 178 refrigerated cargo carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 96 refrigerated cargo carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 47.5% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 5 other vessels here, 4 of them refrigerated cargo carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 11,247 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 2.2 times the median of 5,190 t among the 111 refrigerated cargo carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 283.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 260.9 kg. It logged 2,570 hours at sea against a median of 1,731 hours for its type that year. 4.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for refrigerated cargo carriers was 3.8%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (18,338 t) and the lowest 2018 (7,431 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 96 in 2018 to 76 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 3 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 72 of 95 qualifying refrigerated cargo carriers by EEOI, at the 76th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 55.3; this vessel reported 66.3.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 169,558,571 tonne-miles over 39,649 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 51.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 23.7% while distance sailed fell 10.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 15.1%.That points mainly to how efficiently it sailed, rather than the other.
