MAN Diesel & Turbo has been ordered to deliver two 18V32/40 engines to drive a captive power plant at the Al-Watania Poultry chicken farm in Saudi Arabia. Engines will have a special design which will adapt as much as it can to the environment. The engines will run on crude oil as a main fuel and use Diesel Oil during startup. Alfred Kuhse controller from Germany is specialized in the control of technology and solutions, and has found excellent equipment for the engines. Located in the north of Saudi Arabia, in the Qassim district, not far off the capital Riad, Al Watania Poultry is the biggest chicken farm in the MENA region. It produces 575.000 chickens and one million table eggs per day. Sufficient electrical power is provided by 14 power plants with a combined capacity of 95.7 MW. The new MAN engines are part of the company’s plans to more than double the overall installed power generation capacity on site within the next five years.

The United States Department of Energy declared SimpleFuel the winner of one million USD in the H-Prize competition. The competition was launched in 2014, inviting the American innovators to make an on-site system for producing hydrogen that can be used in homes, community homes, small businesses, or similar locations. SimpleFuel's domestic-size device can charge a vehicle with one kilogram of hydrogen in 15 minutes, using hydrogen produced by electrolysis, with a cost-effective design that minimizes the "ecological footprint" of the device. SimpleFuel began as a collaboration between three major companies: Ivys Energy Solutions (Massachusetts), McPhy Energy N.A. (Massachusetts), and PDC Machines (Pennsylvania).

At the end of year 2014, the MAN Engines company delivered eight V 12 engines to the CRRC Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co. company . The company is also the first Chinese manufacturer of diesel railcars (DMUs), designed for the needs of a European railway company, which placed the DMU units in operation in the second quarter of 2016. MAN D2862 LE633 engines have an output of 588 kW (800 HP) at 1,800 rpm, and are in accordance with the current requirements of EU Stage IIIB emission standards, thanks to the SCR system for exhaust aftertreatment (selective catalytic reduction). Each traction unit is equipped with a motor located under the floor, in the Voith RailPack 600 DH system with a T212 gearbox, while the accompanying cooling system is mounted on the roof of the unit.

The newest container ship Jade, owned by MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Company) has been placed into operation, powered by the biggest and most powerful engine built by MAN Diesel & Turbo. MAN B & W 11G95ME-C9.5 is a two-stroke engine type selected for this ship, which was built and delivered by the South Korean organization DSME. The engine, built by the Doosan company in Korea, according to MAN's specifications, has the capacity of 75,570 kW, i.e. 103,000 HP. In addition, the MSC Jade has four MAN L32/40 auxiliary engines installed, each of which is equipped with the MAN NR34/S turbocharger. The engine is the first in a series of six that have been ordered, with a trial run scheduled for June.

MAN Diesel & Turbo has recently completed a job worthy of attention; retrofitting a turbocharger on a North Sea ship within just 5 weeks from inquiry to completion. The Sjurdaberg ship was built in 1985 and has been successfully sailing northern seas for more than 30 years. it is equipped with a MAN 9L28/32A Alpha engine built in 1984 and a NA34/K turbocharger. Gottfried Eberle, the retrofitting project manager for MAN Diesel & Turbo, said: "During the installation, we replaced the original axial MAN NA34/K turbocharger with a modern, radial one of the MAN TCR20 type. The main advantages of the new turbocharger are its small size and efficiency, as well as a short response time in the event of a load change.“.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) will use MAN 28/33d STC engines as main propulsion in their new offshore patrol cutter programme. The programme is envisaged as a replacement for 13 vessels of the "Famous" class and 14 vessels of the "Reliance" class, which makes this order the biggest in the history of the United States Coast Guard. The MAN 28/33d STC engine offers compact power and stands out amongst other engines because of its high ratio of output to weight. All the engines are in full compliance with the applicable environmental protection standards and Tier 2 regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency. Maintenance costs and servicing downtime are low thanks to high engine availability.

The Energy Observer counts on UNESCO's support in the fulfilment of its mission of promoting renewable energy sources and raising awareness. The vessel will sail from 2017 to 2020, making 101 stops in ports, national parks and big cities worldwide and not using a single gram of fossil fuel. Powered by renewable energy sources and hydrogen, the Energy Observer will leave its home port of Saint-Malo in the spring, and afterwards embark from Paris on a journey around the world, for the purpose of testing transitional energy solutions in real conditions, raising awareness and promoting sustainable development research.

MAN Diesel & Turbo ordered the construction of a gas power plant with a 30 MW engine from the Energie Baden-Württemberg AG (EnBW) company. The combined heat and power (CHP) plant in Stuttgart-Gaisburg will use three MAN 20V35 gas engines, which will not only supply electric energy, but also an additional 30 MW of district heating. The factory in Gaisburg is based on the recently implemented energy cogeneration concept of the MAN Diesel & Turbo company. The factory's modular concept allows for its scaling from 7 MW up to any size. The high level of standardisation also enables fast planning of the delivery time. The plant is scheduled to be placed in operation in 2018.

The MAN Engines company seated in Germany announced that its i6-800 and i6-730 marine engines won the Red Dot international award for quality and design. An independent professional panel took into account factors such as innovations, functionalities and eco-friendliness. In a speech after the award ceremony, Head of MAN Marine Engines Claus Benzler said: "With the introduction of the i6, we now have a MAN engine which no longer purely represents reliability and performance. The design of the i6 engine is extraordinary. It is the "icing on the cake" for luxury yachts, and next to dynamics, it also brings aesthetics to the engine room.". MAN introduced the latest 6-cylinder engines in December 2015, with the aim of equipping yachts, sports vessels and fishing vessels. The MAN i6-800 has an output of 588 kW, while the smaller MAN i6-730 has an output of 537 kW. They are equipped with modern common rail injection systems with up to 1800 bar.

MAN Diesel & Turbo has added three new engines to its programme of ultra-large engines, intended for, among other types of vessels, ultra-large container vessels (ULCVs) and feeder vessels. The engines are of optimized weight, in comparison to their Mk 9 siblings, and represent a new design for the Mk 10 platform of the portfolio. The key feature of the new platform is the development of the top controlled exhaust valve and the booster valve (the fuel booster injection valve component). The new units are: MAN type B & W G90ME-C10, 6,240 kW per cylinder; MAN type B & W S60ME-C10, 2,490 kW per cylinder; MAN type B & W S70ME-C10, 3,430 kW per cylinder. This is the first time that the fuel booster injection valve has been used for such a purpose. It was a pilot project installed on a container ship only six months before it was placed on the market.
