We are Wärtsilä, one global team of purpose-driven experts committed to decarbonizing the marine and energy industries.

As a global market leader in both industries, we are empowered to create a new wave. There are over 90,000 ships in the seas and nearly every second one has a Wärtsilä install base. In the energy field, our experts have delivered 76 GW of power plant capacity in 180 countries. Imagine the possibilities to be achieved through innovation, digitalization, and an engaged team!
