The Grimaldi fleet renewal and modernization program continues unabated. Today in Nanjing (China) the Neapolitan Group took delivery of the
Eco Savona, the fourth of the twelve ultra-modern hybrid ro-ro units of the Grimaldi Green 5th Generation (GG5G) series ordered from the Jinling shipyard.
The
Eco Savona flies the Italian flag and, like her sister units, is a veritable green giant: the
GG5G-class ships are in fact the largest ro-ro units in the world for short-sea shipping, as well as the most ecofriendly.
The Eco Savona has a length of 238 meters, a beam of 34 meters, a gross tonnage of 67,311 tonnes and a service speed of 20.8 knots. If compared to the units of the previous series of ro-ro vessels deployed by the Grimaldi Group for short sea shipping, the new ship can accommodate double the load on her seven decks (two of which are hoistable): in fact, she can carry 7,800 linear meters of rolling freight,
