Leveraging key technologies to achieve sustainability
We have always considered challenges within the larger context. Today, this means acknowledging that no one single solution or technology can get us towards our goal of net zero emissions. This is why we have selected and developed five key technologies which make up the center pillars of our decarbonization strategy, complementing our existing and always evolving core portfolio.
These technologies are able to reduce emissions in hard-to-abate sectors such as shipping, power and heat generation, industrial processes such as cement and chemicals, which are energy-intensive and hard to electrify. Green engines, solutions for carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), as well as innovative industrial-scale heat pumps, cost-effective electrolyzers for green hydrogen production and retrofitting solutions – all of these technologies give us the leverage to decarbonize industries as quickly as possible.
Our five core technologies have immense leverage to reduce CO2 emissions. With these alone, we can address up to 10% of global CO2 emissions.

5 key future technologies
We offer a portfolio of pioneering future technologies that help fight climate change while presenting significant market potential and business success. With our know-how, expertise and leading edge in each of these technologies, we are well-equipped to provide sustainable solutions to the current climate challenges.
We retrofit ships and plants to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Our green engines powered by future fuels such as green hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, and biofuels, are essential for long-term decarbonization.
We are also working with partners on CCUS (carbon capture, utilization, and storage) to capture and store unavoidable carbon dioxide emissions.
Lastly, our heat pumps are an energy-efficient solution for heating and cooling buildings by reducing energy demands.
