Current History

Weslake have recently developed an Opposed Piston Uniflow powertrain that can operate on low fire risk bio and heavy fuels. It has excellent fuel efficiency and a good power to weight ratio.
The engine has immediate applications in both Marine and Aerospace propulsion, also future applications as a range extender Auxiliary Power Unit for Urban Air Mobility also lightweight portable generators and pumps for disaster relief.
Due to the limitation of battery storage capacity, electrification for marine and aerospace applications are limited. There is a very strong market requirement for heavy fuel marine and aviation propulsion for the foreseeable future.
