Methanol engine, engineered for high performance, exceptional
Fuel efficiency, and ultra-low emissions. Designed and validated across diverse applications such as generator sets, marine propulsion systems, and heavy-duty construction machinery, this second-generation Geely-developed engine represents a major leap forward in clean combustion technology. By leveraging M100 methanol as its primary fuel source—combined with advanced control systems and optimized thermal management—the GS13M delivers reliable operation under extreme conditions while significantly reducing environmental impact. Key Features That Set It Apart: - High Performance: Featuring a 12.5:1 compression ratio, high-energy ignition, turbocharging, and intercooling, this engine ensures robust torque delivery and efficient air-fuel mixing for enhanced combustion. - Exceptional Fuel Economy: With up to 20% lower operating costs compared to diesel counterparts, it offers outstanding cost-effectiveness for continuous or intermittent use in industrial settings. - Proven Reliability: Backed by rigorous CAE simulations and real-world testing, the engine achieves a B10 lifespan exceeding 1.2 million kilometers—ideal for demanding long-term operations. - Ultra-Low Emissions: Methanol combustion produces nearly zero particulate matter and reduces CO, HC, and NOx emissions by at least 85%, aligning with global emission standards like Euro IV/V and beyond. - Cold Start Capability: Equipped with an integrated coolant heating system (no gasoline auxiliary starter required), the engine maintains consistent performance even in sub-zero environments—a critical advantage for Arctic or high-altitude deployments. Technical Specifications at a Glance: This inline six-cylinder, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, supercharged and intercooled engine operates at 1500 rpm (50 Hz) with a total displacement of 12.82 liters and a dry weight of 1180 kg. The engine supports various load scenarios—from standby (352 kW) to base load (320 kW)—with precise fuel consumption ranging from 51.72 kg/h at 30% load to 154.13 kg/h at 110% reserve capacity. Its design prioritizes durability, corrosion resistance, and wear resilience, making it ideal for harsh outdoor or maritime applications where maintenance intervals must be minimized. Ideal Use Cases Across Industries: Whether powering remote off-grid generators, marine vessels requiring clean-burning alternatives to diesel, or heavy equipment in mining and infrastructure projects, the GS13M excels in environments where sustainability, low operational cost, and reliability are paramount. It is particularly suited for regions seeking compliance with stringent emissions regulations without sacrificing power output or uptime. User Feedback Highlights: Operators report improved uptime, reduced downtime due to fewer mechanical failures, and noticeable savings on fuel logistics over time. Many appreciate the simplicity of methanol refueling compared to traditional fossil fuels, especially in areas where diesel supply chains are unreliable or environmentally sensitive. Frequently Asked Questions: What makes this engine different from conventional
Diesel Engines? Unlike diesel engines, which rely on petroleum-based fuels and emit higher levels of pollutants, the GS13M uses pure M100 methanol—a renewable, cleaner alternative that burns more completely, resulting in dramatically reduced emissions and better thermal efficiency. Is methanol safe to handle and store? Yes, when stored properly in approved containers and handled according to safety guidelines, methanol poses minimal risk and is widely used in industrial and marine applications worldwide. Its lower flash point than gasoline requires careful storage but does not compromise safety when managed correctly. Can it run solely on methanol without any auxiliary fuel? Absolutely. This engine is designed to operate exclusively on M100 methanol, with a dedicated cooling system ensuring reliable cold starts—an important feature for year-round operation in colder climates. How does it compare in terms of lifecycle cost versus diesel? Due to superior fuel economy, reduced maintenance needs, and longer service life, the total cost of ownership over five years can be up to 20% lower than comparable diesel-powered solutions, especially in high-utilization scenarios. By combining cutting-edge engineering with eco-conscious innovation, the GS13M series stands as a benchmark for next-generation internal combustion engines—offering a viable path toward decarbonized energy systems across global markets.
