Viking Ocean Cruises announced the next two ships being added would run on hydrogen and carry more guests than other vessels in the fleet.
According to Cruise Critic, Chairman and Founder Torstein Hagen said the cruise line’s unnamed ocean-going ships will be longer than the existing vessels in the fleet to carry the hydrogen fuel.
The ships will measure 36 feet longer than their fleet mates, bolster no more than 25 additional cabins and limit the overall passenger count to less than 1,000. The vessel will be powered by a hybrid propulsion system based on liquid hydrogen and fuel cells.
