The engine control module (ECM) is a critical component in the fuel delivery system in diesel, natural gas and hydrogen vehicles. This article looks at the role of ECMs in the fuel delivery systems across various fuel technologies like diesel, natural gas and hydrogen. As we examine modern fuel systems and fuel delivery systems, we will see how ECMs work with fuel delivery systems to keep vehicles moving on the road. The article will also explore how well-functioning fuel delivery systems help drivers and fleets achieve optimal performance and help them achieve their sustainability goals.

Vehicle software has emerged as a key tool in the transportation industry’s journey towards cleaner operations. As the global focus sharpens on reducing environmental impacts, advanced software systems are playing a bigger role in vehicle management. Whether it is optimizing fuel usage, minimizing exhaust gas emissions or optimizing electric and hybrid vehicles, software is at the forefront guiding us towards a more sustainable future.

Today, more companies are investing in low carbon solutions across the power generation and industrial markets, including mining marine and rail. These solutions include battery-electric and fuel-cell battery hybrid systems as well as internal combustion engines (ICEs) powered by hydrogen.

Like every invention, Cummins Inc. engines undergo rigorous testing to determine the viability of a new component, design or technology. With test cells installed in 2015, Seymour Engine Plant’s engine research and development capability and capacity significantly increased. Now, the plant’s sustainability leaders are on a mission to reduce test cell’s fuel emissions.
