    Description
    Objectives

    The project consists of R&D efforts to develop new innovative products partly through the increase of energy efficiency and emission reduction of combustion (diesel) engines for marine applications (mainly engines for large ships) and power applications (mainly electrical power plants).

    This project consists of R&D efforts for the development of innovative solutions for new engine generation, which will be characterised by higher energy efficiency and reduced emissions. Therefore the project is eligible under article 267 of the Treaty point c) i2i.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    The main target of this project is the development of technologies that reduce the environmental impact of large engines, which in their main applications on ships and in power plants have a high duty cycle (running hours over time). Improvements on these engine characteristics will result in significant reductions of fuel consumption and of exhaust emissions.

    EIB procurement rules will pertain.
