Ningbo business takes lead globally in low-speed marine diesel engine technology

Zhejiang Yangpu Diesel Engine Co Ltd has achieved mastery in cutting-edge low-speed marine diesel engine technology, disrupting the 130-year technical dominance held by global shipbuilding industry giants. This accomplishment has recently been recognized by the Chinese Society for Internal Combustion Engines.

A comparative analysis shows that vessels powered by the company's technology consume a mere 40 percent of the energy utilized by ships built before 2014 and experience a 20 percent increase in energy efficiency compared to contemporary ships that do not incorporate this advanced technology.

Located in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, Zhejiang Yangpu Diesel Engine has refined its expertise in low-speed marine diesel engines, with a specific focus on developing efficient and environmentally friendly propulsion systems for ships. Following nine years of meticulous refinement, their propulsion system assemblies have been successfully integrated into bulk carriers ranging from 23,200 metric tons to 60,000 metric tons.
