At the event, visitors could explore the MTU Hybrid Propulsion Solutions Model, which consists of a hybrid propulsion configuration with E-drive, switchboard, and a genset. This revolutionary solution can either be fueled with special reduced emissions diesel engines, or in parallel with a battery to further lower emissions.
These propulsion systems are also future ready: they will soon be able to run on sustainable fuels such as methanol, to even further lower greenhouse emissions.
The division also exhibited the Volvo Penta D13 Commercial Marine engine, a compact yet powerful 12.8-liter, 6-cylinder engine model that delivers various power ratings for heavy to light-duty applications.
Both MTU and Volvo Penta have supplied in-house designed and built after-treatment systems (SCR) for a wide range of diesel engines. This additional system helps to decrease harmful emissions to meet the latest IMO and EPA standards.
