Carnival has settled on the Helios or Excellence Class ships. The AidaNova was the first Helios class ship, the first cruise liner to be powered by LNG and the first ship to be awarded the “Blauer Engel” environmental seal by the German government. The Liquid Natural Gas, LNG drive system fully prevents the release of particulate matter and sulphur oxides and significantly reduces the emission of nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide. The ship cools the gas and stores it as a liquid. She was built by Meyer Werft GmbH in Papenburg, Germany. The engine was built in Rostock.
