MSC Cruises welcomed MSC Euribia, this month – its newest flagship, designed to be the most energy-efficient cruise ship ever built.
The ship is MSC Cruises' second vessel powered by LNG, the cleanest marine fuel currently commercially available at scale. The first was MSC World Europa.
On board, the ship features a range of environmental technology, including advanced on-board waste water treatment systems and waste management handling.
The vessel has also been designed with the future in mind, allowing it to incorporate future innovations in sustainability, such as carbon-neutral synthetic and other alternative fuels, as soon as they are available at scale.
During its maiden voyage, MSC Euribia completed a nett-zero GHG emissions journey from Saint-Nazaire to Copenhagen, benefiting from the emissions reductions allowed by bio-LNG and application of the mass balance approach, the most environmentally efficient method of delivering the benefits of renewable biogas.
