Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC), Fincantieri and SNAM have unveiled plans to carry out an initial 12-month feasibility study into the potential for hydrogen-fuelled cruiseships.
On Monday, the three companies signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly determine the conditions for the design and construction of such a vessel.
These include arranging ship spaces to accommodate hydrogen technology and fuel cells, technical parameters of onboard systems, calculating the potential greenhouse gas emissions savings, and a technical and economic analysis of hydrogen supply and infrastructure.
