Winston Score History

The full picture

Accelleron Industries AG is a Swiss company that makes turbochargers and related systems for large engines. These are not the small turbochargers found in cars — Accelleron focuses on very big engines used in ships, power plants, and locomotives. The company was spun off from ABB in 2022 and is one of the leading independent suppliers of turbocharging technology for medium- and high-speed engines worldwide.

Accelleron earns money by selling turbochargers and, importantly, through aftermarket services like spare parts, maintenance, and upgrades. This aftermarket business is recurring and tends to be sticky because customers rely on Accelleron's expertise to keep critical engines running. The company operates globally, with a strong presence in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, serving shipping companies, energy producers, and rail operators. Its large installed base of equipment creates a durable revenue stream, but a long-term shift away from fossil-fuel-powered vessels and power plants is a meaningful risk the company will need to navigate over the coming decades.
