HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has successfully verified that its HiMSEN engine operates reliably on ethanol fuel, conducting tests on the H32DF-LM 4-stroke methanol dual-fuel platform. The evaluations demonstrated stable performance across all load points, highlighting ethanol's potential as a viable alternative fuel due to its bio-based production and ability to reduce carbon emissions. This development is gaining traction among shipowners and the shipbuilding industry amid fluctuations in methanol supply and pricing.
