MacGregor Secures Comprehensive RoRo Equipment Order for TT-Line's Next-Generation Battery-Hybrid LNG Green Ships
GOTHENBURG, Sweden, Sept. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MacGregor has signed contracts with China Merchants Jinling Shipyard to supply a comprehensive scope of RoRo equipment for TT-Line's two new Green Ship 2.0 battery-hybrid LNG ferries. The contract includes several RoRo equipment items per vessel, representing one of MacGregor's most extensive RoPax scopes to date and establishing a strong operational and service foundation over the vessels' lifecycle.
The order was booked into MacGregor's Q2 2026 orders received.
Designed to set new standards in sustainable maritime transport, the 240-meter vessels will feature 5,400 lane meters of cargo capacity and accommodation for 1,000 persons each. They will operate on key Baltic Sea routes connecting Sweden, Germany, Poland, and Lithuania.
Sustainable Baltic Transport and Strategic Collaboration
The new RoPax ferries build directly on TT-Line's commitment to environmentally conscious, high-efficiency sea travel across the Baltic region. Equipped with battery-hybrid technology and powered by LNG, the Green Ship 2.0 vessels reinforce TT-Line's core values of reducing carbon emissions, optimizing energy efficiency, and delivering seamless, eco-friendly logistics and passenger transit.
This milestone agreement reflects a project development phase initiated in 2021. Building upon operational insights and technical experience gained from previous fleet projects, MacGregor has integrated valuable lessons learnt to optimise design, equipment reliability, and execution processes.
"Our Green Ship 2.0 program is a cornerstone of TT-Line's commitment to sustainable, high-efficiency transport across the Baltic Sea," says Bernhard Termühlen, Managing Director at TT-Line. "Equipping these vessels with high-performance, reliable cargo handling systems is essential for optimising our port turnarounds and delivering high service standards for our freight and passenger customers. We value MacGregor's technical expertise and shared dedication to continuous improvement as we work together to set new environmental standards in ferry transport."
"We are proud to continue our partnership with China Merchants Jinling Shipyard and TT-Line on this ambitious Green Ship 2.0 program," says Magnus Sjöberg, Executive Vice President, Merchant Solutions Division at MacGregor. "By combining technical refinements with a passion for continuous improvement, our cross-border teams across Sweden, China, Poland, Germany and Croatia have delivered an integrated cargo handling solution.
