Edina is the official UK and Ireland distributor for market-leading MWM gas engines rated from 400kWe to 10,300kWe. We’ve held the distributorship rights since 2006, during which, Edina has become one of MWM’s largest customers with a growing install base of over 500 gas engines delivering over 700MW electrical capacity across these territories.
MWM gas engines can be operated with various gas types and are capable of meeting the challenges of the dynamic market environment. MWM gas engines guarantee maximum efficiency, reliability, flexibility and environmental sustainability…together with low lifecycle costs and high profitability.
The TCG 3016 gas engine introduces a new generation of gas engine technology to combine reliability, robustness, and maximum efficiency within the 400kWe – 800kWe range.
The TCG 3016 gas engine offers greatly reduced installation and operating costs and includes the Total Plant and Energy Management (TPEM) control to ensure maximum reliability and availability.
The improved oil management and optimised cylinder and turbo chargers set new standards in terms of durability and reliability.
The TCG 3016 genset has the highest efficiency in its output class through unique combination of long maintenance intervals (80,000 operating hours for Natural Gas) and high efficiency (electrical efficiency up to 43.5 percent).
The TCG 3016 has a smaller setup area than comparable gensets due to its compact design and integrated tanks for daily refilling. Due to the flanged genset concept, the vibration decoupling takes place directly between the gas engine and the base frame, helping to further reduce setup costs.
Greatly reduced oil consumption of less than 0.1 g/kWhe – the TCG 3016 gas engine boasts the lowest lubricant consumption in its class.
TPEM (Total Plant & Energy Management) eliminates the need for additional control systems, as all power plant data for the genset, backup genset, and plant control are combined in one system, resulting in high efficiency through optimum control of the power plant.

The MWM gas engines of the TCG 2020 series are perfectly geared to the challenges of a dynamic market environment. With outputs ranging from 1,000kWe – 2,000kWe, the TCG 2020 meets the high requirements of a broad range of applications and guarantee efficiency, reliability, flexibility, and environmental sustainability, together with low lifecycle costs and high profitability.
The TCG 2020 is highly efficient thanks to its optimised inlet duct, combustion chamber and spark plugs. You can save as much as 15% per annum on fuel costs – and increase your plant’s profitability.
With its optimised engine components, the TCG 2020 requires up to 50% less lubricating oil than other similar gensets. In terms of efficiency that means long-term savings.
Whether you need high efficiency or an optimised standalone unit with good load compensation and black start properties, we can provide you with an engine that is tailored exactly to your needs.
TEM (Total Electronic Management) controls not just the engine… but the entire system including the heat supply from cogeneration. Temperature monitoring for each cylinder and anti-knock control ensure the best possible utilisation of fuel and maximum power output, even if gas composition fluctuates.
The gas-mixer and TEM allows use for a wide variety of gases. Even the most problematic gases such as landfill gas and sewage gas can be used without difficulty.

The MWM gas engines of the TCG 2032 series are perfectly geared to the challenges of a dynamic market environment. In the power range of 3,000kWe - 4,500kWe reliability, flexibility, efficiency and environmental compatibility are ensured along with low life-cycle costs. In this way, they meet the high requirements of a wide range of applications and are highly profitable.
The optimised maintenance concept with cylinder units simplifies accessibility and, along with the reduction of the number of different parts, minimises the time required for maintenance. This can save you up to 20 percent in service costs. At the same time, you profit from up to 30 percent less lubricating oil consumption compared to other engines.
Thanks to the extended service intervals, the TCG 2032 gas engine runs up to 200 hours longer per annum than comparable products. The major overhaul is scheduled after 80,000 operating hours.
The particle-free combustion, with chamber plugs, extends the service intervals for the exhaust gas heat exchanger and reduces service costs compared to other combustion methods. Major components such as pistons, conrods, spark plugs and cylinder heads have been improved to withstand the greater power output and to deliver increased electrical efficiency.
The interaction of all components has been improved even further. All components relevant for efficiency and power output are monitored by the TEM (Total Electronic Management). The new, upgraded wastegate in particular ensures a more efficient operation with changing conditions. This is also the case when the gas composition is fluctuating – thanks to fast response times due to the temperature monitoring for each cylinder. TEM not only controls the engine… but the entire system… including heat extraction.
The high-pressure turbocharger A140, with an improved wastegate, allows operation with a broader air intake temperature range and up to higher altitudes.

The MWM gas engines of the TCG 3042 series are spark-ignited engines that make use of the lean-burn principle. The single-stage turbocharged, charge air cooled 20-cylinder engines achieve an electrical efficiency of up to 48 percent and a total efficiency of up to 93 percent. The natural gas-fired gensets reach outputs of 9,830kWe to 10,300kWe with a consistently high efficiency. Furthermore, the use of a spark plug-operated pre-combustion chamber enables combustion with low emissions.
With outputs ranging from 9,830kWe to 10,300kWe, the new TCG 3042 boasts the highest output in the MWM product range with maximum electrical efficiency achieving 48 percent and best total efficiency of 93 percent.
Fewer components through modular design and integral structure ensure fast setup and minimal footprint. Because of its standard modular design, minimal space is required between multiple engine installations.
The TCG 3042 greatly reduces operating costs through easy maintenance and long maintenance intervals. The genset offers high reliability, modular design, and integral structure which reduce the number of components and facilitate the maintenance.
Suitable for natural gas applications and can be optimised for Combined Heat and Power (CHP) generation or for power generation only (depending on the application scenario). The TCG 3042 is available for high altitude installations, high intake air temperatures, and various fuel gas types with different methane numbers. Elsewhere, the TCG 3042 can be configured between summer and winter mode for Cogeneration power plant applications.
