Welcome to the Evolution Show, Im Johan Landgren.   

I´m back in the Evolution Show studio with a super inspiring guest and wing sail technology! I´m joined by Managing Director Niclas Dahl, the head of AlfaWall Oceanbird, a joint venture developing the world´s largest sailing ship for freight! Niclas Dahl guides us through the remarkable wing sail technology they are developing and that may completely revolutionize the way we ship goods on the sea! Fossil free and silent for the oceanic wildlife!

This time we broaden the scope and I discuss the future with of shipping with Niclas Dahl, using the Oceanbird wing sails as well as other technologies. We also cover the challenges and opportunities we face shipping on the sea today and how we can address them and go fossil free!
