Kawasaki Heavy Industries has commissioned MAN Energy Solutions to supply two 12V51/60 dual-fuel engines for the Miyako Island power plant,…

Capable to run on dieses and natural gas, the 12V51/60 engines will generate around 24 MW of electrical power in its role as the primary base-load provider at Miyako, a small Japanese holiday island with 50,000 inhabitants.

“Our engines will mainly run on natural gas but, due to their dual-fuel capability, also offer maximum fuel flexibility and reliability. This is highly important for independent power supply for remote islands such as Miyako,” explained Martin Höhler, MAN head of sales in the Asia Pacific.

The versatility of dual-fuel engines is beneficial for supplying remote regions with reliable and independent energy, he said. The customer Kawasaki HI is one of MAN’s “longest-standing partners,” Höhler pointed out, “with a shared business history dating back to 1911.”

Okinawa Electric Power had some years ago installed two 18V48/60B engines at a power plant on the neighboring island of Ishigaki.
