JENBACHER TYPE 4
Overview:
Since its introduction in 2002, the Jenbacher Type 4 gas engine has built on the proven design of the Type 3 and Type 6 platforms, offering exceptional power density, fuel flexibility, and efficiency. Known for its reliability in CHP (combined heat and power), cogeneration, and trigeneration projects, the Type 4 continues to be a trusted solution for industrial facilities, municipal utilities, and distributed power generation.
​
With more than 5,800 engines delivered worldwide, the Type 4 has established itself as a leading choice for reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE) applications, including natural gas, biogas, landfill gas, LNG, and LPG power systems.
Backed by INNIO Jenbacher’s global service network and available through Marinsa Caribbean, the Type 4 engine delivers reliable, efficient, and sustainable power generation solutions across Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and the wider Caribbean Basin.
