Fincantieri said Wednesday it would bring forward the construction of its first zero-emission ship from 2050 to 2035.
Fincantieri is working to "bring forward the construction of the zero-emission ship to 2035 and not to 2050" as indicated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), said Fincantieri CEO and DG Pierroberto Folgiero at the Shareholders' Meeting held Wednesday.
Hydrogen research is going in this direction", he specified.
For Folgiero "the ship is a system of systems, no longer a hull that needs to be welded" and today Fincantieri is "the largest shipbuilder in Europe" that "offers complete services for the life cycle of green and digital ships".
In this sense, the CEO underlined, "today we also build fuel cells".
