MAN EcoLoad advisory tool
Improved efficiency | Lower CO2 footprint
The MAN EcoLoad advisory tool constantly monitors current operation conditions and provides real-time recommendations based on live data and your individual requirements. EcoLoad supports smooth and easy operation, especially for propulsion plants with MAN ECOMAP functionality. No matter whether you are running a modern diesel electric plant with asymmetric load sharing, a complex Diesel-mechanical plant or experiencing extreme weather conditions, you will always be able to run a cost-effective, environmentally conscious plant.

See the potential on any device
The EcoLoad web-based user interface can be easily accessed from anywhere on the vessel on any device connected to the ship’s network. The up-to-date and user-friendly interface highlights your propulsion plant’s full potential. Users can view both local optimization options with currently running equipment and see how starting or stopping the equipment could improve operational efficiency even more.

MAN Energy Solutions Signs MoU with Eastern Pacific Shipping on Ammonia Training Development
MAN Energy Solutions has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) at Posidonia 2024 International Shipping Exhibition in Piraeus, Greece, on the development of crew training for the handling of ammonia as fuel on vessels.
Signed between Cyril Ducau, Chief Executive Officer for EPS and Bjarne Foldager, Country Manager, Denmark for MAN Energy Solutions, the MoU will enable EPS to be trained alongside MAN Energy Solutions’ engineers on the safe handling of ammonia for its dual-fuel engines, and to develop training material to strengthen capability building on the transportation of alternative fuels like ammonia over time. Both signatories are committed to further this process working alongside classification-society and regulators.
Ducau said: “This MoU not only underscores the significance of our partnership with MAN Energy Solutions as we pioneer the industry’s green transformation, it also complements our recent commitment to collaborate with stakeholders like the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, to create the right environment for the safe transportation of alternative fuels like ammonia. It will enable us to address challenges more holistically to develop tailored training that will enhance crew safety and strengthen environmental aspects as we decarbonise the global shipping industry safely.”
MAN Energy Solutions’ relationship with EPS goes back decades. Currently, EPS is working diligently with MAN Energy Solutions to enable the delivery of MAN B&W dual-fuel ammonia engines for a number of Very Large Ammonia Carriers and Newcastlemax bulkers. More recently, MAN Energy Solutions presented EPS with a plaque commemorating its one-thousandth dual-fuel engine order being received for one of EPS’ vessels.
Foldager said: “At MAN Energy Solutions, we have always been impressed by EPS’ seafaring personnel who have proven themselves eminently capable of adapting to change and tackling all manners of technical challenges. This ‘can do’ spirit and commitment to excellence will come to serve them well when handling an alternative fuel like ammonia and the unique challenges it presents. The training that EPS personnel will receive will cover a range of innovations and safety measures that we have incorporated into our ammonia engine design to ensure safe and reliable operation at sea. I can think of no better launch partner with whom we could have worked.”
