Yanmar Agri Co., Ltd. and Yanmar Philippines Corporation, have agreed to collaborate with Faeger Corporation in efforts to reduce methane emissions from rice paddy in the Philippines using the water management method known as Alternate Wetting and Drying. Tests are set to commence around November 2024 towards promoting early adoption of the system and realizing the benefits of decarbonization.
Hitachi Zosen, MOL, and Yanmar PT achieved a 93.8% reduction in methane slip from LNG-fueled vessels at full engine load. The project, adopted by NEDO, was confirmed by ClassNK through a Statement of Fact, a world-first validation.
Researchers at Yanmar R&D Europe have paired an efficient Yanmar combined heat and power (CHP) generator with advanced gasifier technology to deliver a solution that solves the challenge of farm waste. Farmers simply feed woody farm waste in one end, to produce power, heat, and useful farm products. The whole system is portable and fits neatly in two standard sized shipping containers.
La “Farm Circular Solution” (FCS, Azienda Agricola Circolare) di Yanmar è una soluzione containerizzata che converte rifiuti agricoli in energia e altri prodotti utili in agricoltura. Creando un ciclo sostenibile, il progetto riduce i rifiuti non smaltibili e contribuisce a un'agricoltura più rispettosa dell'ambiente.
I ricercatori presso Yanmar R&D Europe hanno accoppiato un cogeneratore d

Yanmar has successfully commercialized a maritime hydrogen fuel cell system to achieve decarbonization of the maritime industry. The company plans to propose the installation of this system on various ships, including passenger ships, work ships, and cargo ships operating in coastal areas where hydrogen refueling is relatively accessible.
Three of Japan’s leading marine engine manufacturers, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., Yanmar Power Technology Co., Ltd., and Japan Engine Corporation have concluded a joint venture contract for combined investment, and today announced the joint establishment of a new company HyEng Corporation.
With a view to contributing to decarbonization in Japan, and promoting development of shipbuilding a
Our ageing national grid infrastructures need to be upgraded or replaced with more efficient, environmentally friendly and secure networks. However, how smart are ‘smart grids’ and what’s the ‘smartest’ way for them to incorporate the latest developments in ‘virtual’ power plant technology? Fortunately, Yanmar and its European research partners are working to help provide the answers.
Osaka Japan, December 24th, 2019 – Yanmar subsidiary, Yanmar Engineering has announced the deployment of SHIPSWEB, a sophisticated tool for management of auxiliary engines on ocean-going vessels. Available from November 1st, 2019, SHIPSWEB incorporates elements of artificial intelligence and advanced information and communications technology (ICT) to efficiently manage the operation of large auxil
Yanmar Co., Ltd. has released a list of diesel engines manufactured by the company that are certified for compliance with the European Stage V (EU Stage V) off-road emission standards set to come into effect from 2019.
Yanmar has delivered two 6EY26DF dual-fuel commercial marine engines with the ability to use both heavy fuel oil (HFO) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel for tugboat. Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) will take delivery of the vessels once construction is completed in February 2019 with the tugboat expected to commence operation in April 2019.
Yanmar has been developing and trialing a waste vegetable oil powered bio diesel co-generation system (CHP) since 2011, towards the implementation of a resource recycling model for society. Waste cooking oil is collected at local supermarkets and processed into fuel for combine heat and power generator systems.
Yanmar is engaged in a pilot program to generate electricity from biogas derived from rice husks. The aim is to provide electricity to run the rice mills, while using the waste heat from the cogeneration system to dry the chaff. The residues from rice husks left over from burning the chaff contain fertilizer nutrients which can be returned to the farmland to help recycling-oriented agriculture.
With beginnings in Osaka, Japan in 1912, Yanmar was the first ever to succeed in making a compact diesel engine of a practical size in 1933. Moving on, with industrial diesel engines as the cornerstone of the enterprise, Yanmar has continued to expand its product range, services, and expertise to deliver total solutions as an industrial equipment manufacturer. As a provider of small and large engines, agricultural machinery and facilities, construction equipment, energy systems, marine, machine tools, and components — Yanmar’s global business operations span seven domains.
On land, at sea, and in the city, Yanmar’s Mission of “providing sustainable solutions focused on the challenges customers face, in food production and harnessing power, thereby enriching people’s lives for all our tomorrows,” stands testament to Yanmar’s determination to provide us with “A Sustainable Future”.
