IMO Tier III standards, enabling a global solution for commercial marine opera- tors. The solution is based on both the Drydock your company’s own experience along with that from the Volvo Group in leading ship here!

selective catalytic reduction (SCR) tech- nology, resulting in a system that is dedi- cated to heavy-duty marine operations.

New emissions restrictions for vessels entering the Baltic Sea and North Sea, will be implemented in 2021. The IMO

Tier III regulation will stipulate a reduc- tion in nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted of around 70 percent – depending on engine size – when compared to current IMO

Tier II levels.

Customer before company, employee before owner, “Our new concept is designed with features and components to withstand family before self, safety above all the toughest marine environments,” said Johan Carlsson, Volvo Penta’s chief technology of? cer. “In complying with

IMO Tier III requirements, Volvo Penta detyens.com will meet international emissions stan- dards, offering a truly global solution.”

Volvo Penta is initially launching its

IMO Tier III solution for its 13-liter mod- els as the range is used for a wide variety of marine applications. It will be avail- able for inboard engines and the Volvo

Penta Inboard Performance System (IPS) package (with a power output of 294-588 kW), auxiliary engines (ranging from 294-441 kW), and gensets (ranging from 300-400 kW). The reduction in NOx will
