Wärtsilä’s new ship engines can reduce methane exhaust by using a spark instead of diesel for combustion.
This technology has been patented by the company, with the aim of further expanding fossil fuel-free solutions.
The platform weighs 17,818 tons, equivalent to the weight of more than 2,500 African elephants.
The VX4 collected data from 35,000 parameters in each test to ensure maximum flight safety.
Certification will be key to validating the technology and bringing the turbine into mass production.
The plant will have a capacity of 60 MWac, enough to power approximately 11,000 homes per year.
