Our journey for carbon-neutral from reducing emission to zero-emission
HHI-EMD is developing various technologies to respond to global warming and environmental regulations.
To reduce
CO₂, we developed a Gas/DF engine using natural gas, a low-carbon fuel and a hybrid propulsion
system. Furthermore,
we are making efforts to develop engines that use eco-friendly fuels such as
methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen for the
future.
We respond on the global climate change and its many negative impacts. All options regarding possible sources of power, such as electrification, hybridization, and alternative fuels (including hydrogen, biofuels, and others) are being considered in our research. The resesarch also includes developing engines that are capable of running on both carbon-based and zero-carbon fuels in existing fleets.

Gas-fueled engines can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 25% compared to diesel fuel. The combustion efficiency was improved to dramatically reduce methane emissions by applying several technologies such as MSS (Methane Slip Solution) and CCO (Cylinder Cut Off), GHG emission regulations to be strengthened in the future. With the engines used eco-friendly fuels such as methanol, ammonia and hydrogen, there is no problem.
Hyundai Heavy Industries has launched a program called the HiMSEN Hybrid Propulsion System.
Its goals include minimizing fuel oil consumption and GHG emissions by means of variable
speed
operations, the strategic sizing of operating components, and optimized operational
modes.
