🏭Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Marine Machinery & Equipment and Wärtsilä to collaborate on improved power and propulsionsolution.
Tokyo, December 12, 2017 – Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Marine Machinery & Equipment Co., LTD (MHI-MME) and the smart technology group Wärtsilä have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) regarding the commercial marketing of a new energy solution for ships.
The solution combines innovative technologies from both companies to produce greater power generation capacity and higher propeller propulsion for marine vessels.
By integrating MHI-MME’s waste heat recovery and energy saving power generation system (WHRS) with Wärtsilä’s operational control technology for shaft generator systems, the new solution results in more energy efficient ship navigation and an improved Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI).
