Sustainable MAN Engines product range

MAN's vision is to make our customers' business easier – through leading sustainable solutions.

We want to live up to our social responsibility and see sustainability as a core element in order to survive in global competition. That's why we see this topic as an integral part of our corporate strategy. For this reason, we have anchored decarbonization as one of the central themes in our sustainability strategy.

The goal of MAN Engines - a business unit of MAN Truck & Bus - is to offer our customers solutions in agricultural and construction technology, for water and special vehicles as well as in power generation that do not release CO2 locally. Our aim is to support the business of large and small OEMs towards decarbonization with our products and services. We offer different solutions for a wide range of applications.

  • Consistently moving towards sustainability: MAN Engines is powering the green transformation and designing the drives of the future for its customers.

Products for a new era

We started contributing toward CO2 reduction early on with bridging technologies. We are constantly developing this element and rely on numerous technologies to achieve our decarbonisation goals.

Tailored for every application

Different applications require different drive solutions. That is why MAN Engines offers its customers the optimum solution for every application. The image shows how different the framework conditions are in various areas and which drive can meet which requirements.

Energy for a sustainable future

The future belongs to a smart mix of different drives. Even the internal combustion engine has a place here – after all, it too becomes sustainable when powered by climate-friendly energy sources. Whether biogas and sewage gas, an addition of hydrogen to natural gas, hydrogen engines or HVO as a diesel substitute, MAN Engines embodies the transformation and is driving forward sustainable solutions. Find out what the various alternatives involve here.

Climate-friendly movement

Many of the new technologies for CO₂ reduction are already available and are being used in practice. Others are still finding their feet, but have already given us an idea of their potential. Here, we use specific examples to show you what will keep our world moving tomorrow and beyond.

Partner of the Polish energy transition

Electricity and heat from biogas and special gases are also in vogue in Poland. MAN Engines supplies the right engines for this, which are being integrated into renewable energy systems by MAN partner Enervigo.
