Everllence reports that orders for its small-bore GenSet engines have passed 2,000 units in 2026 to date, which the company says reflects continued market confidence in its auxiliary engine offering.

The German firm said the figure points to demand for marine auxiliary engines that can deliver reliable onboard power generation across different vessel segments. Everllence's small-bore engines are used in marine GenSet and propulsion applications, where the company says they offer favourable maintenance intervals and competitive lifecycle costs.

Rasmus Frimann Nielsen, head of small-bore four-stroke engineering at Everllence, commented: "Reaching this milestone is a strong validation of our strategy — focusing on solutions that are not only future-ready but already deliver at sea today. Shipowners value reliability, efficiency and flexibility, and that is exactly what our small-bore portfolio provides."

The order intake comes as the shipping industry works through a transition towards low- and zero-carbon fuels. Everllence said it continues to invest in fuel-flexible and scalable engine concepts, including developments in methanol and ammonia technology. The company pointed to ongoing projects focused on dual-fuel auxiliary engines and retrofit-friendly solutions as part of this work.

Lars Zimmermann, head of small-bore four-stroke promotion at Everllence, stated: "The industry does not need concepts alone; it needs solutions that can be deployed and trusted. With our small-bore portfolio, we are delivering precisely that: reliable power for today that is adaptable for tomorrow."

The small-bore GenSets are designed and developed in Denmark and are backed by Everllence's global service network, which the company says supports lifecycle maintenance and parts availability for operators internationally.
