Plan to Increase Production Capacity of
Ammonia-Fueled Propulsion System
※"Plan to Increase Production Capacity of Ammonia-Fueled Propulsion System" is selected under
"Zero Emission Ship Construction Promotion Project"
"Zero Emission Ship Construction Promotion Project"
This project aims to establish a domestic production system for zero-emission ships, thereby strengthening industrial competitiveness and driving economic growth.
In addition to the dual-fuel engines already in production, which utilize LNG, LPG, and methanol, we will accelerate the production of dual-fuel engines (and fuel supply systems) that use ammonia through upfront investments enabled by this project.
10
By strengthening the production framework for marine engines, we will contribute to expanding the global share of ships built in Japan
and to the growth of the shipping industry.
Furthermore, Japan's marine industry aims to double shipbuilding capacity by 2035, and as a leading manufacturer of marine engines, our company will fulfill its supply responsibilities to help achieve this objective.
