Wärtsilä accelerates the transition towards marine decarbonisation and the shift to a 100% renewable energy future. Marine and energy sectors account for roughly a third of the world’s carbon emissions. This is why we pioneer and introduce solutions and services that help our customers continuously improve their environmental and economic performance.
