Cummins Inc. and Leclanché have announced a memorandum of understanding (MOU) aimed at collaborating to deliver lower-emissions power options for operators in the marine and rail spaces.
The collaboration will allow Cummins and Leclanché to offer customers a broad range of hybrid, battery-only and fuel cell power options. Power sources may include engines, hydrogen fuel cells and battery packs and racks. The partnership is one component of Cummins’ effort to achieve “net zero emissions across its products” by the year 2050, according to the announcement of the MOU. In addition, Cummins has recently rebranded its “new power” segment as “Accelera.”
Leclanché’s latest marine battery offering is the Navius MRS-3 marine rack system, a scalable and modular system that can be customized to a particular vessel design. Each module can supply up to 8,700 kW hours of energy. Leclanché released the Navius MRS-3 in June 2022.
Besides working together to market the power packages, Cummins and Leclanché will also partner on installation, training, commissioning, warranty and support for the energy systems.
