Ex-Porsche CEO Tries to Save Combustion Engine From Scrapheap(1)
By Eyk Henning and Christoph Rauwald
(Bloomberg) -- As tightening emission rules force the car
industry to embrace battery power, a German startup says it has
the technology to give the combustion engine a reprieve.
Using pulsed microwaves to ignite fuel rather than spark
plugs or glow plugs, the engineers behind MWI Micro Wave
Ignition AG say they can cut consumption of gasoline and diesel
by as much as 30 percent, and emissions by as much as 80
percent, because the fuel burns at a lower temperature.
The company based in the small Black Forest town of
Empfingen has won some powerful backers. Among its shareholders
is Wendelin Wiedeking, the former chief executive officer of
Porsche AG credited with reviving the iconic German sports-car
maker.
MWI has mandated Macquarie Capital to look for a buyer and
international partner that can help to promote the new system
and increase MWI’s financial firepower, according to people
familiar with the matter. The company has begun talks with large
automakers from South Korea and China, one of the people said.
MWI declined to comment.
Wiedeking and a group of other private investors own about
20 percent of MWI, which is controlled by its founders, Armin
and Volker Gallatz.
“I am convinced that MWI is a disruptive innovation with a
huge market potential,” Wiedeking was cited as saying in a
document shared by MWI.
More efficient engine technology could keep traditional
cars on the road for longer, shoring up industry profits as auto
makers spend heavily to ramp up production of electric vehicles
in coming years. Several manufacturers are still investing in
better combustion engines.
MWI’s pitch is that it can be integrated into existing
engine architecture rather than requiring an all-new approach.
