Rolls-Royce Power Systems road map for climate-neutrality; 35% cut by 2030 from 2019; key role of mtu engines

Green Car Congress

By 2030, the Rolls-Royce business unit is to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 35% compared to its 2019 level through the use of new net zero and zero carbon technologies. Or it relates to fuels such as hydrogen, that would not at all emit CO 2 at the exhaust pipe. Switch to alternatives for combustion engines.

Rolls-Royce developing methanol-fueled mtu engines for shipping

Green Car Congress

The combustion of methanol in a pure methanol engine can be climate-neutral with significantly reduced nitrogen oxide emissions, thus eliminating the need for complex SCR exhaust gas aftertreatment. Smart-ship solutions that enable the semi- and fully autonomous operation of ships are also expected to help reduce CO 2 emissions.

FPT International introduces 8.7-liter CNG engine in China

Green Car Congress

The Cursor 9 CNG offers power up to 400 hp @ 2000 rpm, and torque up to 1700 N·m @ 1.200 rpm, while at the same time having emissions lower than Euro VI. To comply with Euro VI the Cursor 9 CNG does not need Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) or Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), but relies on a simple three-way catalyst.
