Alfa Laval’s new E-PowerPack turns waste heat into electricity

Alfa Laval is set to launch the E-PowerPack, a self-contained solution that can generate electricity from many different heat sources on board ships, using Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology.

These include not only exhaust gas waste heat, which accounts for 50% of the energy from combusted fuel, but also liquid sources at lower temperatures, such as engine jacket water.

By converting waste heat directly into electrical power, the E-PowerPack reduces fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
