2025.07.14
 

The President 100, a 100% biofuel (B100) powered transport vessel with core propulsion power from Weichai, was officially launched in Singapore recently. This is an important milestone in the B100 test project jointly carried out by Weichai with partners such as the Singapore branch of China Classification Society (CCS), the Centre for Marine Energy and Sustainability Development (MESD) of Nanyang Technological University, and Pinnacle Marine, marking the official launch of the B100 in the continuous operation verification phase on real ships.

Built by Singapore's local shipyard Pinnacle Marine, the vessel is 16 meters long and is equipped with two Weichai WP13C450-18BF marine propulsion engines and two CCFJ20J-W5BF marine generator sets. The vessel will undergo a 1,000-hour continuous operation test in Singapore port waters to evaluate the performance, emission characteristics and reliability data of B100 biodiesel under long-term conditions.

B100 biofuel is one of the solutions for the shipping industry to move towards net zero emissions. Weichai B100 pure biofuel marine Power, by optimizing combustion efficiency and reducing emissions, not only helps improve the environmental indicators of ships, but also provides a new path for green transformation for global shipping companies.

The implementation of this project will provide data support for the development of B100-related ship refueling, storage and operation standards, and will also serve as an important model project for Singapore's shipping industry to move towards net zero emissions.
