Powering the Future of Clean Ferries: 3D Animation for Wärtsilä & Baleària

Set to become one of Europe’s largest and most eco-efficient “smartships,” this groundbreaking 232-meter ferry for Baleària will be the first gas-propelled vessel of its kind to cruise the Mediterranean. 

Bowvision helped communicate the scale, complexity, and innovation behind one of the largest LNG-powered Ro-Pax ferries in Europe. The animation highlights the integrated LNG propulsion system, passenger-focused design considerations, and the vessel’s role in reducing emissions while maintaining high performance and comfort standards.

By harnessing clean LNG power, the ship significantly slashes its environmental footprint—reducing CO2 emissions by 25% and nearly eliminating sulphur—while maintaining an impressive speed of 24 knots. This innovative vessel represents a major leap forward in sustainable travel, combining high-speed performance with a deep commitment to preserving the marine environment.
