Paul Dowman-Tucker, the CEO of Bowman Power explains how electrification of engine turbomachinery will play a key role in enabling the world to transition towards a net zero future.
This presentation shows how Bowman Power is using e-machines to improve efficiency and reduce emissions in the power generation and transport sectors.
It also focuses on the company’s growth strategy, forthcoming product developments and funding requirements to achieve their ambitious goals in Asia and worldwide.
4. THE TIME HAS COME FOR
ELECTRIFIED TURBOMACHINERY
“Electrification is being pushed by
governments, industry and customer
demand.” 1
“Primary energy industries (e.g. electricity
and natural gas) [are heading] towards the
goal of 90% CO2 reduction by 2050.” 4
“Changes in customer behavior, new
regulatory conditions and the unfolding
trend of electrification.” 3
“Pollution and fuel consumption are the
most important features of our thermal
engines that must be further improved.” 2

“Turbocharging has a key role in achieving
future CO2 and emission targets.” 5
“The presence of an eTC … should lead to
a win-win situation for future engines” 6

DEVELOPMENT
E-Turbo
IN
DEVELOPMENT
Converts waste exhaust energy
into electrical power.
Improves power density & fuel
efficiency, and reduces emissions.
Rapidly provides engines with the
air needed for combustion.
Achieve acceleration with less fuel,
and lower transient emissions.
The waste heat recovery benefits
of ETC and almost instantaneous
boost pressure availability of an
electric compressor.

Editor's Notes
Passenger vehicles addressed by Garrett, Borg Warner, Bosch and others – not our space
Big players in the industrial and heavy duty engine space are ABB and CTT – they’re choosing Bowman as their electrification partner
Industrial engines based on average expected Gen 4 ETC installed cost of £20,000 per system
On and off-highway based on sale price of £300 per system, of which ~£100 would be revenue to Bowman
