MSC Cruises’ MSC World Europa will set new standards for environmental sustainability at sea, with the liquefied natural gas-powered ship to become the first contemporary vessel to incorporate fuel cell technology with the potential to deliver significant carbon dioxide emission reductions.
World Europa will feature brand new solid oxide fuel cell technology powered by LNG, and developed by MSC, Chantiers de l’Atlantique and Bloom Energy.
