MAN Diesel and Turbo has been selected to supply a new icebreaker. The main plan is the production of a new engine for the 'Australian Antarctic Division's (AAD). 2 x 16V32 / 44CR main engines, which produce 9,600 kW, have been selected due to their efficiency in fuel degradation and design, which can be adapted to the environment. The engines have shown no problems during the testing at -30 ° C and extended missions. 'Serco Defence' has been selected for the provision of parts of the ship, and the design is by 'Damen Shipyards Naval Shipbuilding' (DSNS). The completion of the construction is planned for 2020.

A diesel engine with 10 cylinders and 100,000 horsepower has recently been installed in a locomotive Considering that in America 99% of locomotives are diesel-electric hybrids, the 'GE Evolution Series' locomotive holds about 5,000 gallons of diesel. The effectiveness of fuel for trains is measured in tonne-miles, and the length of trains produces different results. For instance, in 2009, CSX trains have reached an average of 468 miles per gallon per tonne, which means that trains can travel anywhere, from 6,000 to 16,000 tonnes. The locomotive, which is currently in operation, shows promising results.
