Scania demos renewable marine diesel fuel in New Jersey
In Texas, Scania recently announced the successful demonstration of the performance and viability of renewable marine diesel fuel in a Viking 48 Convertible powered by twin Scania 1,150 HP DI16-liter V8 engines during a media event at the Farley Marina at the Golden Nugget, Atlantic City, New Jersey. The vessel, MACK ATTACK, launched last June, was commissioned by Mack Boring & Parts Co. — the U.S. distributor of Scania marine diesel engines — to demonstrate the reliability and performance of Scania’s most powerful pleasure craft-certified V8 engines. During the trials, the twin Scania engines ran on RD99 renewable diesel. All Scania marine engines can operate on RD99.
