MSC World Europa has become the first ship to plug into Valletta’s new shore power facility, the first to be operational in the Mediterranean.    Malta’s power grid supplied electricity for all MSC World Europa’s operations whilst the ship was berthed to allow all engines to be switched off, eliminating the vessel’s direct emissions at the port.    Speaking as Malta’s Prime Minister Robert Abela toured the 22-deck LNG-powered ship, Michele Francioni, MSC Cruises’ Chief Energy Transition Officer applauded Malta for leading the way for the provision of shore power in the Mediterranean Sea. He said:   “Shore power is one very important element of our continued commitment towards decarbonisation, with most of the MSC Cruises fleet equipped to eliminate local emissions and improve local air quality when the ships are at berth in port. We look forward to many more ports in the region and throughout the world being equipped in the future so that the cruise and broader maritime sector can further reduce local emissions when alongside.” For more, visit https://lnkd.in/g4ZQxHid #MSCCruises #CruiseNews #ShorePower #MSCWorldEuropa Stefano Battinelli Transport Malta
