Everllence announced in a press release that it has confirmed the operation of ethanol at all load points in a 90-bore ME-LGIM (Liquid Gas Injection Methanol) engine in Japan. Everllence pioneered the ME-LGIM platform over a decade ago, with the first commercial engine entering service in 2016 within the methanol-carrier segment. Building further on the ME-LGIM platform, the operation on ethanol means Everllence now has a fully operational engine with which to document ethanol capabilities. Senior Vice President and Head of Two-Stroke R&D, Everllence, Ole Pyndt Hansen said: “The past few years have brought steadily growing interest in ethanol from the market. Our data confirms our earlier assumption that we could run our ME-LGIM engine on ethanol without issues,” added Hansen.
