flag WinGD to launch first ethanol-powered two-stroke marine engine in 2027, supporting cleaner shipping.

flag WinGD, a Swiss engine maker, is set to launch the world’s first ethanol-fueled two-stroke marine engine in 2026, with deliveries starting in 2027 for new and retrofitted ships. flag Based on a decade of research and existing methanol engine technology, the engine features modified fuel systems to handle ethanol’s properties. flag The company is engaging shipowners, fuel suppliers, and regulators to identify early adopters and is evaluating whether the engine will run on ethanol alone or support dual methanol-ethanol operation. flag The move supports growing industry efforts to adopt low-carbon marine fuels amid tightening emissions rules.
