Portfolio overview

MAN Energy Solutions SE has been granted 122 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing MAN Energy Solutions SE at rank #3,099 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 58 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in F05D (INDEXING SCHEME FOR ASPECTS RELATING TO NON-POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES OR ENGINES, GAS-TURBINES OR JET-PROPULSION PLANTS). As a Foreign Corporation, MAN Energy Solutions SE is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 51.0/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 90 grants, compared with 32 in the 2015–2019 window — a +181% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. MAN Energy Solutions SE's 11.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 58 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark MAN Energy Solutions SE against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
