Energizing Middle East

Wärtsilä power plants are the ideal solution for decentralized power production and an attractive alternative to the conventional model of centralized power plants.

Our power plants can be used for base-load applications or for peak-load needs or to complement wind energy. Our engines can handle liquid fuels such as HFO/LSHS, LFO, LBF or natural gas. Versatile dual-fuel engines can switch between liquid fuel and gas, on line. The CCHP solutions have a very low CO2 footprint, and merit status of ‘deemed renewable energy’.

We provide complete EPC solutions and lifecycle O&M support.

Hear insights directly from Frederic Carron, our Vice President, Middle East & Asia, as he shares how our solutions are driving the region’s energy transition in an exclusive interview with Utilities Middle East.
