Wärtsilä has launched the first large-scale 100 per cent hydrogen-ready engine power plant to enable the net-zero power systems of tomorrow. It is a significant advancement from existing technology, which can run on natural gas and 25 per cent hydrogen blends. The Wärtsilä 31 engine platform synchronises with the grid within 30 seconds of the start command, ensures energy security through fuel flexibility and offers unparalleled load-following capabilities and high part load efficiency. It has completed over 1 million running hours, with over 1,000 MW of installed capacity globally. The 100 per cent hydrogen-ready engine is expected to be available for orders in 2025, and for delivery from 2026.
