Wärtsilä

We are proud of the long-lasting impact of our community-focused activities in South Africa. At the end of 2020, upon completing a customer job at the port of Cape Town, we donated four shipping containers that would be converted into soup kitchens, libraries, and training centres for underprivileged communities. We recently received feedback that one of those containers, initially used to upgrade a local food bank, is now a library and counselling centre providing adult education opportunities for the local community. 🫶 We are committed to supporting initiatives that create added value for our local communities, focusing on the welfare & sustainable development of the community at large.

Wärtsilä is revolutionising the industrial bearings market with its 100Bond® white metal technology. This innovation leverages an advanced laser deposition process to deliver precision and consistency while eliminating hazards and improving material utilisation. The laser technology boosts the performance and durability of white metal applications, resulting in longer lifespans for components. The 100Bond® technology offers improvements in mechanical bonding and fatigue resistance compared to regular casting procedures. In addition to performance, the technology is also environmentally friendly, reducing CO2 emissions and promoting the circular use of components. This technology is particularly beneficial for steam turbines, compressors, and gearboxes.

As Wärtsilä turns 190 this year, we celebrate the pioneering colleagues who have contributed to the company’s success – meet Monique Van Der Schoot. A sailing regatta influenced Monique’s career path in Sint Maarten, where she met a project manager for a cruise ship who was eager to see the ship he had worked on. This encounter gave Monique her first taste of the Wärtsilä spirit, showcasing the company’s strong sense of curiosity and dedication. Monique values the company pride and the drive for excellence that Wärtsilä has. What is significant is how this is a shared trait among all Wärtsilians, no matter what business, country, or culture we belong to.

We are happy to announce that the renewal of our existing Operations and Maintenance agreement with QIT Madagascar Minerals S.A has been expanded to include a Decarbonisation Agreement. 🌱 The agreement covers QMM’s 24 MW engine power plant located at their ilmenite mineral sands mine at Fort Dauphin. 🌍 This agreement enables the optimisation of all assets within the microgrid, including the use of renewable energy. The benefit? Both a reduction in emissions ✅ and remarkable cost savings. ✅ “The reliability and efficiency of the power plant are critical to our operations, and we are therefore excited to extend this agreement. The renewed agreement allows us to take advantage of Wärtsilä’s competence in power system optimisation and use renewables in the most efficient way”, says Jean-Francois Richer, Director of Integrated Operational Services at QMM. Christoffer Ek, Director of Decarbonisation Services at Wärtsilä Energy highlights: “Our Decarbonisation Agreement is taking energy optimisation to a new level by enabling cost savings, a reduced environmental footprint, and higher efficiency.
