CEO Uwe Lauber of the former MAN Energy Solutions announced the company’s new name, Everllence, to support its “Moving big things to zero” strategy.
MAN Energy Solutions announced it is now operating under a new name: Everllence. The new brand identity is a global effort and combines “ever” and “excellence”—two central attributes of the company's self-image.
“Our name change is the logical next step in the execution of our ‘Moving big things to zero’ strategy, which focuses on decarbonization and efficiency solutions, especially for those sectors of the global economy that have to deal with hard-to-abate, climate-damaging emissions,” said CEO Uwe Lauber. “Today, we are no longer known in the market for just engines and turbomachinery, but also as a supplier of large heat pumps, carbon capture and storage, as a driver of climate-neutral shipping, and as part of the hydrogen ramp-up. This is what we want to express with our new name, Everllence.”
Everllence will still be a part of the Volkswagen Group, and the company’s product and service portfolio also remains unchanged. Lauber unveiled the new nameplate at its headquarters in Augsburg, Germany. Other ceremonies were also held in Oberhausen, Berlin, Zurich, and Copenhagen at its other locations.

“The name Everllence underlines the company's current development into one of the world's leading providers of sustainable decarbonization solutions,” said Gunnar Kilian, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Everllence and member of the Board of Volkswagen Group. “At the same time, it underlines the industrial pioneering work that it has repeatedly executed during its 250-year success story. With a clear focus on climate protection and as a driver of industrial value-creation, Everllence will continue to drive forward sustainability and the future viability of mechanical engineering in Germany, as well as the global energy transition.”
The New Brand Identity
“Ever” expresses over 250 years of company history and looks to the future—to the new and innovative, to the first-ever. From the first diesel engine to the first diesel-powered, ocean-going vessel, from the first wind turbine to the first gas engine and the world's largest fluvial heat pump—the company has always been driven by innovative strength, engineering, and a pioneering spirit throughout its long history.
“Excellence” refers to the company's high technological standards and its excellent corporate management at all levels: whether in internal company processes, cooperation with colleagues, partners and customers, leadership culture, or corporate citizenship.
According to the company: “True to the motto ‘Moving big things to zero’, Everllence now supports key industries in reducing emissions that are difficult to avoid. The company develops marine and power-plant engines, as well as retrofit solutions that reduce CO2 emissions with climate-neutral fuels. The company's large-scale heat pumps decarbonize the heat supply of cities and industrial plants worldwide, while technologies for carbon capture and storage ensure the safe removal of unavoidable CO2 emissions from industrial processes. As a manufacturer of electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen, the company is also part of the global hydrogen ramp-up through its subsidiary, ‘Quest One’.”
