FREEDOM ACE against its type

Built in 2005, it is 3 years older than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 60,175 gross tonnage it is larger than 65% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 66 vehicle carriers here under the Japan flag, 9.3% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 35 other vessels here, 3 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give TOKYO as port of registry.

Its 795 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 89% below the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 320.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 224 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 17.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 7 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (12,888 t) and the lowest 2025 (795 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 3 in 2018 to 34 in 2023 (lower is more efficient). The one sister ship listed below with a 2025 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 83.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 91.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.0%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
