A shore-to-ship power system being installed in the ship is designed to connect cruise ships to the power grid of a port while at berth to further reduce the ship’s emissions. The AWT system will purify wastewater through a comprehensive purification process using a very fine filtration process and transforms it into near tap-water quality. The SCR system will help to reduce nitrogen emissions by 90% by converting nitrogen oxide from the engine operations to nitrogen and water via catalyst conduction. MSC Seashore is being fitted with an advanced selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system and a next-generation advanced wastewater treatment (AWT) system. It will include improvements such as a 16m-long extension, 10,000m² of additional deck space, a larger MSC Yacht Club, and improved guest flow. It can accommodate up to 5,632 guests and 1,648 crew members. The ship has a maximum weight of 169,400t and a maximum speed of 21.8kt. The 339m-long MSC Seashore will be the longest vessel in the MSC fleet of cruise ships and the largest ship ever to be built in Italy. The cruise ship is expected to be delivered to MSC Cruises in July 2021. The float-out of MSC Seashore was successfully completed at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy, in August 2020. The Seaside Evo-class ships are equipped with redesigned public spaces, additional cabins and the highest ratio of outdoor space per guest among the vessels in the company’s fleet.
