Recently, CSSC Power (Group) Corporation Ltd. (CPGC), a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), successfully completed bench testing of its independently developed CPGC-8ML320DF dual-fuel engine and delivered it to the customer. This marks another significant achievement for CPGC in the field of self-branded engines.
This engine offers the following four key advantages:
This series of engines features configurations ranging from 6 to 9 cylinders, offering versatile applications for power generation units in large LNG carriers and tankers, as well as main engines for bulk carriers, refrigerated cargo ships, and chemical tankers in the 6,000–18,000-ton class. It represents a new generation of green power equipment with outstanding comprehensive performance.
The successful delivery of this first prototype not only demonstrates CPGC’s independent R&D capabilities in dual-fuel engine technology but also lays a solid foundation for the market promotion and large-scale application of subsequent series products.
