HHI develops eco-friendly gas engine

The new gas engine can be used for ship propulsion and power plants. The engine features ‘Lean Burn’ technology and is regarded as eco-friendly and highly efficient by reducing parts to make the engine lighter and therefore saving fuel. The new engine emits 20 percent less CO2 than diesel engines, reduces NOx emissions by 97 percent to reach a claimed "world’s lowest" level of 50ppm, and improves engine performance 47 percent.
After the final durability test, Hyundai Heavy plans to start full-scale production of the new engines from early next year.
Upon the completion of the newly developed gas engine, Hyundai Heavy will have full production capacity of 582kW to 10,142kW diesel and gas engines.
