MAN Diesel & Turbo becomes MAN Energy Solutions

This, the company said in a statement, reflects a new strategy adopted in 2017 to expand business in sustainable technologies so that they may become the company’s main source of revenue by 2030. The rebranded company is to offer an expanded product range, including hybrid, storage and digital service technologies.
Affirming its commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement, MAN Energy Solutions’ chairman, Dr Uwe Lauber, identified power-to-gas technology as a promising means of cutting shipping’s carbon emissions. Power-to-gas allows energy generated from renewable sources to be converted into synthetic fuels, such as natural gas.
“Using power-to-gas technology, we can produce a number of completely carbon-neutral, synthetic gases that can drastically reduce the CO₂ impact of logistics and energy generation when used as fuel,” he said. “In addition, there will be storage solutions in a range of sizes. In this way, we will build the intelligent energy system of the future.”
