Tomorrow’s energy landscape is being reshaped by new technologies and regulation in unforeseen ways. Decarbonising our industry is not something we can achieve overnight. We believe that finding visionary partners with the most inspiring innovations is crucial in making it happen.
To tackle these challenges, Wärtsilä Next Business Lab is on a mission to uncover game-changing innovations to support the energy transition. We’re looking for ambitious growth companies to join us in moving towards a more sustainable energy future.

Gain insights into how to succeed in the power sector. Increase your awareness of industry dynamics and how development, manufacturing, and purchasing work.

Collaborate with us to co-create a compelling use and business case. This will help you to understand how to gain traction for your services and solutions.

Engage in a Proof-of-Concept project, create a prototype or pilot service or solution in the ProtoZones at the Sustainable Technology Hub.

Join us at an event or participate in a publication to build thought leadership on a shared topic of interest.
In the Wide and Intelligent Sustainable Energy (WISE) Ecosystem, Wärtsilä explores how the energy sector can be decarbonised through wisely generated balancing. With the WISE Ecosystem, we’re in search of solutions that can springboard our customers into a decarbonised future.
We see co-innovation potential in areas related to autonomous power plants and autonomous solutions’ predictability and reliability. This includes plant optimization, predictive operation and maintenance based on data, holistic plant health, digital twins, data intelligence and monitoring with advanced capture technologies.
Hydrogen creates opportunities for collaboration, for instance, developing hydrogen components for high-pressure inputs and digital twins for hydrogen value chains. Other examples include innovating leak detection solutions, sensor technology and new materials for hydrogen and ammonia storage.
To achieve a successful partnership, we should be able to:
