Grimaldi Group has taken delivery of the RoRo Eco Napoli, the last of 14 ships in the Grimaldi Green 5th Generation (GG5G) class.
The vessel is equipped with electronically controlled engines and with an exhaust gas cleaning system for the reduction of sulphur and particulate emissions. Furthermore, during port stays, the Eco Napoli is capable of cutting emissions to zero by using the electricity stored in mega lithium batteries with a total power of 5 MWh, which are recharged during navigation thanks to shaft generators and 350 m2 of solar panels.
The Eco Napoli is expected to arrive in the Mediterranean in early May, carrying approximately 7,800 linear meters of rolling cargo (cars, vans, trucks, agricultural machines, etc.).
Thanks to their outstanding operational and environmental performance, and our continued investments in the routes we serve, we will continue to enhance our Motorways of the Sea offering more capacity, efficiency, and sustainability.
…said Emanuele Grimaldi, Managing Director, Grimaldi Group.
