HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH was designed, as far as possible, to minimise her impact on the environment, incorporating many new technologies such as integrated platform management system which allows only the minimum number of engines to be operated, adapting to demand.

Until the duration and nature of the deployment is finalised it is not possible to accurately estimate the environmental impact or amount of CO2 that will be generated by HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH on this tasking.
