Cummins CPCB IV+ Gensets Power EXCON Mining Sites Nonstop

The spotlight at EXCON this year fell firmly on Cummins’ new CPCB IV+ compliant gensets, engineered to meet India’s latest emission norms while delivering uninterrupted power for mining and construction operations. As infrastructure projects expand into deeper, more remote locations, dependable power backup has become a critical requirement. Cummins’ latest upgrade positions the company strongly for this fast-evolving segment.

A New Era of Clean and Continuous Power

The CPCB IV+ standard, now mandatory nationwide, marks a major leap in India’s emissions landscape. It introduces tighter limits for particulate matter and NOx, pushing engine makers toward cleaner, more efficient combustion technologies. Cummins’ transition to this category demonstrates the company’s long-term commitment to sustainability without compromising reliability.

For mining clusters—where operations run around the clock and equipment downtime can derail production—this new generation of gensets offers a vital combination of cleaner operation, steady power output, and long service life.

Built for Harsh and High-Demand Worksites

At EXCON, Cummins emphasized how its CPCB IV+ gensets are optimized for rugged environments, especially mining belts, crushers, batching plants and remote construction sites where grid access is unreliable.

Key attributes include:

• Stable power delivery for heavy machinery, lighting, and automated mining systems
• Robust cooling and filtration systems adapted for high-dust zones
• Fuel-efficient engines that lower operational costs over long duty cycles
• Improved emission control design, ensuring compliance in all states

These capabilities allow contractors to operate confidently even in remote and demanding terrains where power fluctuations can cause costly equipment damage.

Supporting India’s Infra Boom & Quick Commerce Growth

India’s rapid infrastructure expansion—highways, metro corridors, mining exploration, and multi-modal logistics hubs—has sharply increased the demand for dependable genset power. Alongside construction, the quick commerce and express logistics sectors have also emerged as heavy users of back-up energy systems.

From 24×7 fulfilment warehouses to temperature-controlled distribution trucks, uninterrupted power is essential. Cummins’ latest gensets help address these operational needs by ensuring:

• Zero downtime during power cuts
• Seamless operation of automated loading systems
• Reliable charging for electric forklifts and warehouse vehicles
• Safe operations for high-value or perishable cargo

This positions the CPCB IV+ range as a crucial backbone for fleet operators who cannot afford delays.

Stronger Backup for Trucking and Construction Fleets

For fleets operating in remote mining and construction areas, gensets do more than power facilities. They play a direct role in supporting truck operations—fuel pumps, tyre inflators, refrigeration units, and repair stations all rely on stable backup energy.

Cummins’ new lineup provides:

• Higher reliability for roadside service hubs
• Better support for on-site maintenance during long contracts
• Lower emissions, helping companies meet sustainability targets

With construction companies now increasingly adopting digital and telematics-enabled systems, stable power is not a luxury—it is a necessity.

A Future-Ready Step for India’s Energy Landscape

The introduction of CPCB IV+ gensets signals a wider industrial shift toward cleaner, smarter and more efficient power sources. By upgrading its engines ahead of market demand, Cummins has strengthened its leadership position in the generator space and provided contractors with a future-proof solution.

As EXCON showcased, the infrastructure sector is moving rapidly toward modernisation, and the need for reliable off-grid power will only grow. With its new CPCB IV+ range, Cummins is fully prepared to power that transformation—whether at a deep mining site, an express delivery hub, or a remote construction fleet depot.
