The first ship of the new “World Class,” it sets new standards for the cruise industry and represents the future of the cruise industry, offering a world of different experiences.
MSC World Europa, as stated by Pierfrancesco Vago, executive chairman of MSC Group’s Cruise Division, represents the new phase of the journey to zero emissions and sustainable cruising, symbolizing Msc’s unwavering commitment in this regard. In fact, it is the first contemporary cruise ship in the world to feature a brand new solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions substantially compared to the conventional LNG engine. It also features a wide range of equipment to optimize energy use throughout the ship, an advanced wastewater treatment system, and minimizes underwater noise impact.
