The Future Combustion Engine Power Plant (FCEP) research program is focused on reciprocating engine technologies and related power plant technologies. The objective of the program is to improve energy efficiency and the environmental impact of combustion engine power plants to meet future market requirements.

The main components of the research are:

• combustion process

• energy efficiency of the engine itself and auxiliaries such as heat recovery systems and power conversion technologies

• emission control

• fuel flexibility

• automation and control for optimized power plant usage
