    Wärtsilä generating sets - Tailored to optimize performance

    A wide range of generating sets, comprising generator and engine mounted on a common baseframe, are available for both service power generation and for diesel-electric propulsion.

    Wärtsilä genset 20

    Most Wärtsilä generating sets are designed for operating on standard marine fuel oils. Dual-fuel gensets are flexible when it comes to both gaseous and liquid fuels. The generating sets are resiliently mounted and the generator voltage can be selected. Larger diesel generators are delivered for separate mounting of the diesel engine and generator.

    Access Marine 3D models & drawings

    With the tightening emissions regulations, it makes sense to focus on future-proof choices: Wärtsilä’s efficient, fuel flexible gensets. They will provide power reliably and save you fuel.

    Alternative fuel gensets

    The Wärtsilä 25 Ammonia genset is a compact, reliable power source capable of running on ammonia, liquid biofuels and traditional marine fuels. (See W25A in the table.)
    The Wärtsilä 32 Methanol genset is a powerhouse of a genset with state-of-the-art features. It runs on a wide range of liquid fuels, from heavy fuel oil (HFO) to methanol.
