With the adoption of strategic goals for GHG emission reductions in international shipping, methanol and other alternative fuels are being considered widely and rapidly as future fuel options. In addition, while public attention is shifting away from the TTP approach to the WTP approach, green methanol, which is produced through renewable methanol synthesis, has been gaining greater popularity as a carbon neutral fuel. The design of the ME-LGIM model, a methanol-fueled MAN-ES engine, has already been completed, and we will be able to provide a stable supply of ME-LGIM engines in the commercial shipping market based on our abundant marketing experience.
