MS Roald Amundsen

In 2019, Hurtigruten added a new ship to its fleet, MS Roald Amundsen. This state-of-the-art vessel features new environmentally sustainable hybrid technology that reduces fuel consumption and shows the world that hybrid propulsion is possible even on larger ships.

MS Roald Amundsen° is the first of two hybrid ships Hurtigruten will add to its fleet over the next few years and will reduce emissions by cruising with electric propulsion. Combining hybrid technology with advanced hull design and efficient use of onboard electricity, the vessel's fuel consumption and her CO2 emissions are reduced by 20%. The construction of these two ships represents her single largest investment in the history of Hurtigruten.

Future shipping will be quiet and emission-free. MS Roald Amundsen paves the way for a more sustainable way of traveling. Not only does electrically powered voyages have significant environmental benefits, but they also increase the impact of nature experiences for guests. Built specifically for polar voyages, this vessel serves as a comfortable base camp at sea, taking adventurers around the world to their most spectacular destinations in the most sustainable way. .
