Hydrogen gensets

CMB.TECH is taking concrete steps towards green power generation for temporary energy supply. Our hydrogen genset has a Volvo Penta Stage V D8 industrial engine, applying CMB.TECH's hydrogen dual fuel technology, and will be used for port operations and off-grid power generation.

Dual fuel co-combustion gensets can take advantage of the clean energy source. The dual fuel engines can run on 100% diesel if there is no hydrogen available or run with hydrogen-diesel with a simple refuel process exactly like current gasoline or diesel refuelling.

Dual fuel co-combustion engines leverage the known long-lifetime and low CAPEX and OPEX of internal combustion engines. The changes to the diesel gensets for dual fuel operation are minimal (the technology can even be retrofitted to existing gensets in some cases) meaning low investment costs. Operating, servicing, repair and maintenance are all similar to existing engines meaning low OPEX costs, minimal retraining and existing infrastructure for parts supply and servicing.

The pioneering BeHydro mono fuel hydrogen engines deliver 100% clean energy. They emit no harmful emissions such as carbon (CO₂), nitrogen (NOx), sulphur oxides (SOx) or soot particles. As the power train is zero emissions at the exhaust manifold, after-treatment systems are not required, saving costs and reducing maintenance.
