Everllence has received the first order for its 175DF-M (Dual-Fuel Methanol) engine. It covers the supply of two 12V175DF-M and one 16V175DF-M variable-speed yacht gensets, including methanol fuel-supply systems; delivery is scheduled for July 2027. They engines are for a superyacht <\/a>currently under construction by an undisclosed European shipyard. Everllence\u2019s scope of supply covers 2 \u00d7 12V175DF-M and 1 \u00d7 16V175DF-M variable-speed yacht gensets, including methanol fuel-supply systems; delivery is scheduled for July 2027<\/p>\n The company reports that many customers from the ferry, cruise, offshore, tug, superyacht and governmental segments have shown a strong interest in the 175DF-M engine since it began development in 2023. In fact, Everllence has already been working with several customers on concrete vessel concepts<\/a> \u2013 both on newbuilds that are methanol-capable on delivery, and on methanol-ready concepts that allow future conversion of current ship designs via a retrofit scenario.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are happy to announce that a leading superyacht builder has selected the 175 dual-fuel methanol engine for its latest project,\u201d said Dr Alexander Knafl, head of R&D, four-stroke at Everllence,.\u201d The engine features very high methanol-combustion efficiency, low emissions and super-high reliability. We are furthermore proud to be able to say that this is a first order for a high-speed dual-fuel methanol engine dedicated to diesel-electric and mechanical propulsion.\u201d<\/p>\n Florian Keiler, head of high-speed sales, marine four-stroke at Everllence, said: \u201cThe customer\u2019s decision to order three 175DF-M variable-speed gensets for a methanol-diesel-electric propulsion setup reflects its strong confidence in our methanol engine technology. The combination of advanced performance, future-proof design, and Everllence\u2019s clear commitment to sustainable shipping \u2013 embodied in our mission, \u2018Moving big things to Zero\u2019 \u2013 was key to this milestone. We are convinced that the 175DF-M will play a pivotal role across a wide range of marine applications powered by carbon-neutral fuels.\u201d<\/p>\n 175DF-M development<\/p>\n In keeping with the company\u2019s development and market introduction of two-stroke and four-stroke medium-speed dual-fuel methanol engines, Everllence began the development of the high-speed 175DF-M engine in 2023, expanding its future-fuel four-stroke portfolio even further. Based on computational simulations and the optimization of the combustion process on the test bed, says Everllence, the 175DF-M will achieve never-before-seen methanol-shares in combination with a high power-density and high fuel-efficiency.<\/p>\n The post First Everllence 175DF-M methanol engines will power a superyacht<\/a> appeared first on Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
