At MITSUI E&S Tamano Factory, which is the production base for company’s core products such as large marine diesel engines and industrial machinery/reciprocating compressors, MITSUI E&S have constructed a facility capable of supplying a large volume of hydrogen gas at 1,000Nm3/h.
MITSUI E&S plan to supply hydrogen from this facility to large marine engine (output 7MW) under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism subsidy project, which was adopted together with Daihatsu Diesel Co., Ltd. in fiscal 2021.
