Recently，Cummins announced its Darlington campus in the UK.Multi-Fuel Powertrain Test Facility Officially Opened。Inauguration of the new powertrain test facility，It further strengthens the company's leading position in the field of ultra-low emission and zero emission power technology.，Drive industry to reduce greenhouse gas emissions，Improve air quality。

The new powertrain test facility can test the power of theDiesel、Natural gas、Zero hydrocarbon fuel and pure electric driveMulti-element powertrain system，Expanding the company's testing capabilities，Further promote Cummins and its brandsAcceleraProduct development，Including meeting the requirements to be implementedOu Qi（Euro 7）And non-road Euro VI（Stage 6）Internal combustion engine with emission standard、Fuel cell、Pure electric products，As well as key components such as axles and electric drive axles。

Over £ 13 million invested，The two-story, 738-square-meter test building is equipped with cutting-edge facilities.，Significantly improve testing capabilities。IncludeRobot driving（Equipped with manual or automatic transmission）、Road slope and load simulation、Wheel slip simulation and engine duty cycle simulation。

Vice President of Cummins，Bai Nachuan, Chief Engineer of Engine Division（Jonathon White）Express：

“The new center will further enhance our R & D and testing capabilities.，Be able to develop and test a wider range of hydrogen、Renewable natural gas、Diesel or electric powered vehicles and machinery。The completion of the new center is an important part of Cummins' zero-carbon strategy.，The strategyAims to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the company's products，Reduce impact on air quality。No matter what kind of energy the customer chooses to use，We can provide the right solution for them.，Achieve energy transformation。”

Utilize a sophisticated dynamometer，Cummins engineers can fully test the chassis powertrain system.。Test capability extends from engine testing to complete driveline，The test range is very wide.，Covers on-road and off-road applications，From compactSUVTo a 44-ton truck，And then to the double-decker bus.，And construction machinery and agricultural equipment。

Bai NachuanAdded：

“Cummins' Powertrain Technology Capabilities Cover a Wide Range，For cleaner use、Paving the way for more efficient technology。This not only improves driving performance and efficiency，It also enhances sustainability.，And effectively reduce operating costs.。At the same time，To ensure that the product can meet the upcoming Euro VII（Euro 7）Carbon dioxide emission standards for heavy vehicles。”

New test facility to support cleaner power solution development，And integrate environmental benefits into their daily operations.。For example：Advanced dynamometer is used.，Equipped with energy recovery system，The energy during the test will be recovered to generate electricity，For the Cummins plant，Reduce impact on local power grid。In addition，Through the existing rainwater collection system of the plant，Rainwater collection and reuse，Reduce water consumption。
