UNI SUNSHINE against its type
Built in 2018, it is 11 years newer than the median general cargo ship on this register, which was built in 2007 (2,852 vessels with a known build year). At 22,734 gross tonnage it is larger than 85% of the other 2,665 general cargo ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 216 general cargo ships here under the Liberia flag, 7.0% of the 3,081 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 468 other vessels here, 92 of them general cargo ships. The reported port of registry changed: HONG KONG (2018–2023), then Monrovia (2025).
Its 2,199 t of CO₂ for 2023 is 40% below the median of 3,650 t among the 1,342 general cargo ships on this register that reported for 2023. Per nautical mile it emitted 177.4 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 193.7 kg. It logged 1,055 hours at sea against a median of 1,942 hours for its type that year. 2.2% of its 2023 emissions were at berth; the median for general cargo ships was 4.5%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (2,840 t) and the lowest 2021 (639 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 26 in 2018 to 27 in 2023 (lower is more efficient).
No EU/EEA voyages were reported for 2025: zero CO₂ and zero time at sea, left out of the trend and of any ranking.

Efficiency against its own type2023
Position 881 of 3,262 qualifying bulk carriers by EEOI, at the 27th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 8.0; this vessel reported 6.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 349,028,571 tonne-miles over 12,395 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2023 was 52.4% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2022 to 2023, emissions fell 22.6% while distance sailed fell 14.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.5%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
