Volvo Penta’s expanded remanufacturing offer can reduce driveline production emissions
Though electrification offers the most obvious route to emissions reduction, there are also a number of means by which ICE technologies can contribute to reducing environmental impact. Volvo Penta has expanded its range of remanufactured drivelines to include complete engines D13, D8, D4 and D6 and the complete Inboard Performance System (IPS) range. The remanufacturing process of complete marine engines reuses up to 60% of components and can save up to 56% CO2 emissions during production compared to producing new.
For the first time, customers will be able to purchase a complete propulsion package from a remanufactured Volvo Penta IPS driveline. The remanufactured Volvo Penta IPS drives are created on the same production line as new units, with the same quality and performance as new Volvo Penta IPS drivelines and backed by the same Volvo Penta genuine parts warranty.
Opting for remanufactured increases the lifespan of the engine and driveline, thereby increasing the vessel lifespan. The offer represents the best-quality replacement outside of a new engine and the turnaround is faster, plus all remanufactured components stay updated and are modified to a technically improved design.
