Outlining details of its plan to move toward decarbonization and the development of sustainable solutions, Yanmar Marine International released an energy strategy statement at the Boot Düsseldorf show in Germany.
“Care for the natural environment has been at the heart of all Yanmar operations since its founding — an ethos already evident in our range of fuel efficient, low-emission marine engines,” Floris Lettinga, YMI sales and marketing director, said in a statement. “However, the marine engineers here at YMI are now reinforcing this long-held commitment to a sustainable future with a strategy to develop propulsion solutions with a minimum CO2 footprint to benefit our customers and partners in a sustainable way.”
The strategy is part of the Yanmar Green Challenge 2050, a companywide goal to fundamentally transform the business by eliminating greenhouse-gas emissions and harmful substances in all activities, manufacturing and products by 2050.
YMI is exhibiting at the Düsseldorf show, which runs Jan. 21-29.
