With the arrival of FINNTIDE in Gdansk, Finnlines has entered another phase in its Energy Efficiency and Emission Reduction Investment Programme. Four of its “Breeze series” vessels (FINNSKY, FINNSUN, FINNTIDE, FINNWAVE) will be lengthened by 30m by the Remontowa S.A. shipyard, adding 1,000 lane meters. The yard is committed to perform this €70 million work in less than two months for each vessel. The whole lengthening programme will be completed in May 2018.
The 30% capacity increase will considerably reduce the energy consumption per transported unit, compared to the original vessel.
