Methanol-powered ships are on the rise, Farizon engines facilitate decarbonization

Driven by the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) "Net zero Emissions by 2050" target, Methanol, with its advantages of being clean and easy to store and transport, has become the core Fuel choice for decarbonization in the shipping industry, and the market for Marine methanol engines has thus entered a period of explosive growth. Behind this trend lies the significant advantage of green methanol combustion, which can achieve nearly 90% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and has almost zero sulfur oxide emissions.

From the perspective of market size, methanol-powered ships have completed commercial verification: In recent years, the number of global operating ships has steadily increased, and new ship orders have achieved a significant increase in a certain year, with a multiple growth compared to the previous year. Despite the objective existence of market fluctuations, with the expansion of green methanol production capacity (expected to reach several million tons in the coming years), the long-term expansion trend is clear.

From a technical perspective, a mature pattern has been formed for Marine methanol engines. Two-stroke models have become the main force of large ships due to their high power density. Mature models have accumulated over tens of thousands of hours of operation, meeting the diverse demands ranging from chemical tankers to ultra-large container ships. The four-stroke models focus on medium and small power scenarios. International mainstream enterprises are all accelerating their layout. Some models have already received orders and are expected to enter the mass delivery period around 2025.

Orders for various models have been received and it is expected that they will enter the mass delivery period around 2025. Farizon subsoil methanol Marine Engine research and development, the accurate echo global demand. The two-stroke model adopts low-pressure combustion technology and a dual-wall fuel system. It has been tested in extreme environments, with core components imported in their original form. The B10 lifespan exceeds 30,000 hours, making it suitable for container ships with a capacity of over 10,000 TEUs. The cumulative bench test time has exceeded 10,000 hours, and its reliability has been well verified. For small and medium-sized ship four stroke models have the ability to dual fuel switching and flexible adaptation of methanol and conventional fuels, integrated intelligent diagnosis system, support the remote warning and predictive maintenance, modular design easy installation, more adapted old green modified requirements of the ship.

With the gradual improvement of port refueling facilities, the operational obstacles for methanol-powered vessels have been continuously resolved. Farizon, with technological innovation at its core, is creating Methanol Engine solutions that are suitable for all scenarios. It is working hand in hand with global shipping partners to accelerate the green transformation of the shipping industry.
