Recently, the first oil to gas bus in Ethiopia, provided with core power and full process technical support by Weichai, has been officially put into trial operation, achieving a breakthrough of zero natural gas buses in the country.

Weichai has been deeply involved in Ethiopia for 13 years, and its market share has remained stable at the top of the local bus power market. Faced with the development trend of Ethiopia vigorously promoting energy structure transformation, Weichai, relying on mature and leading gas power overall solutions, has taken the lead in landing the country's first oil to gas project in the public transportation field, providing a full chain integrated service of "scheme design+technical implementation+post guarantee".

Weichai dispatches a professional technical team to deeply connect and create a cost-effective exclusive renovation plan, reducing renovation costs while ensuring performance. We customize and develop natural gas engines that are compatible, and carry out vehicle system debugging and performance tuning to ensure stable vehicle operation;

Provide specialized training on natural gas engine maintenance for local service stations and bus companies, covering product theory and practical skills, to strengthen local operation and maintenance capabilities.

The Weichai WP10NG natural gas engine installed in the vehicles of this oil to gas conversion project has outstanding advantages such as strong power, high efficiency and reliability, low gas consumption, and green environmental protection.

With the successful trial operation of the first prototype vehicle, Weichai will continue to promote the delivery and landing of 1200 natural gas powered products and supporting equipment, helping local public transportation to transform and upgrade towards green and low-carbon.Editor/Cheng Liting
