The reports document the entire environmental life cycle of the&nbsp;mtu&nbsp;16V 4000 DS2500 and 10V 1600 systems \u2013 from raw material extraction to production and use, to end-of-life recycling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith these environmental product declarations, we set a new industry standard for environmental transparency in the field of energy systems,\u201d said Tobias Ostermaier, President Stationary Power Solutions at Rolls-Royce\u2019s Power Systems division. \u201cThis is our response to growing demand from our customers, and we are actively supporting them in reducing their carbon footprint.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>mtu&nbsp;emergency power generators can be operated with 90% fewer emissions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/agriculture21xx\/20383_st3_agriculture-biogas\/\">mtu<\/a>\u00a0emergency power generators are already approved for operation with sustainable fuels such as hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) and e-fuels. HVO can be used as a full replacement for fossil diesel without any technical modifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Rolls-Royce\u2019s certified service offering enables longer maintenance intervals: instead of monthly checks, operators only need to test their emergency power systems every quarter \u2013 significantly reducing both costs and emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern&nbsp;mtu&nbsp;exhaust gas aftertreatment also reduces pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter to a minimum. In combination with sustainable fuels, CO2, NOx, and particulate emissions can be reduced by over 90%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EPD \u2013 Environmental transparency according to global standards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The EPD International System is an independent, globally recognized organization based on the ISO 14025 and EN 50693 standards. The declarations registered there provide detailed data on resource consumption, emissions, waste generation, and recyclability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They describe all phases of the product life cycle \u2013 from the supply chain to transport, assembly and operation, to maintenance and decommissioning. They are based on real production and operating data from Rolls-Royce manufacturing facilities and suppliers, supplemented by life cycle assessment data from Sphera. \u201cOur EPDs create transparency for customers, authorities, and partners \u2013 and prove that sustainability is measurable and verifiable,\u201d said Ostermaier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mtu-solutions.com\/\">mtu-solutions.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rolls-Royce has delivered&nbsp;mtu&nbsp;emergency power generators with verified environmental product declarations (EPDs) to a European data center operator for the first time.
