Mobile Applications
Advanced steam power, built to move.
Mackwell’s advanced steam technology isn’t limited to stationary heat and power. We continue to develop and support mobile applications where reliable, resilient energy matters.
Our technology is designed around locally available solid biomass, providing an alternative to conventional liquid fuels while using robust, practical engineering built for demanding environments.

AGRICULTURAL
Biomass-powered agricultural machinery
Our 67 horsepower tractor demonstrates how Mackwell technology can be applied to agricultural transport and machinery.
Designed to operate using solid biomass, the concept provides a pathway towards more locally fuelled, energy-resilient farming.
RAIL
Locomotives &
replacement boilers.
Rail is where much of Mackwell’s technology began.
Our boiler technology grew from hands-on experience and we continue to develop solutions for both new locomotives and existing steam fleets.
Mackwell replacement boilers can be custom designed to suit an existing locomotive’s specifications and appearance, allowing heritage operators to retain the character of the original locomotive while introducing modern boiler technology.
MARINE
Steam power for
marine applications
Mackwell technology can also be adapted for marine vessels, including new applications and the reboilering of existing steam-powered ships.
We can work with vessel owners and operators to understand the application and develop a system around its requirements.
BUILT FOR THE APPLICATION
New builds. Existing machines. Specialist applications.
Mackwell works with existing locomotives and marine vessels requiring replacement boilers or reboilering, adapting our technology to suit the machine and its intended use.
