The four new ships are loaded with the world's largest battery pack ever installed on a passenger ship, permitting them to sail through vulnerable fjords, such as the world heritage Geirangerfjord, for four hours nonstop with zero emissions.The batteries are charged with clean hydropower ashore, and when the batteries are not being usedthey run on LNG (liquid natural gas) which – along with general efficient hybrid operation – cuts CO2 emissions by around 40 per cent.
