Silversea Cruises has revealed the name of its next new ship as Silver Nova. Developed as part of the ultra-luxury cruise line’s innovative new-build project encompassing twin ships, known until now as “Project Evolution”, Silver Nova commenced construction at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany quietly last month. Executives from Silversea and Meyer Werft held a traditional steel cutting ceremony on 18 November.

Silversea Cruises’ next series of ultra-luxury ships will be operated using a combination of power sources – fuel cells, battery technology and LNG.
