MSC’S JOURNEY TOWARDS NET-ZERO EMISSIONS BY 2050
As part of the company’s journey towards net-zero emissions by 2050, the cruise division of MSC Group will have shore power connections in two Northern European ports this Summer
- Starting this summer season and for the first time, MSC Virtuosa and MSC Poesia will be consistently using shore power at the ports of Southampton (UK) and of Rostock-Warnemünde (Germany).
- MSC Cruises has also signed an agreement with Cruise Baltic to achieve widespread use of shore power in the Baltic Sea region by 2024.
- MSC Cruises is ready to plug into more ports. Over half the fleet is projected to be shore power compatible by the end of 2022.
- On top of this, MSC Cruises’ first hybrid LNG ship operating with the largest solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) ever installed will be launching later this year - MSC World Europa.
