Design of MOGAS (stationary natural gas engine)
CUSTOMER PROBLEM
The challenge: manufacture a 1MW gas engine for emerging countries (Africa & Middle East) subject to severe environmental conditions: high ambient heat, altitude and variable gas quality, as well as a faulty or non-existent electrical grid.
CRMT SOLUTION
CRMT was entrusted with several key tasks:
- Ensure engine power and efficiency in these extreme conditions,
- Maintain a low carbon footprint,
- Demonstrate performance through engine tests using in-house measurement equipment.
