Sponsored by the China Internal Combustion Engine Industry Association and the Wuxi municipal government, the congress is the most influential and comprehensive event in the global internal combustion industry.
More than 600 groups and 1,000 individuals, including the world's top experts and scholars, academicians and entrepreneurs have decided to take part in it.
Although automobiles can be powered by a variety of energy sources, the internal combustion engine, one of the greatest inventions of mankind, is still the most potential and effective way to achieve energy saving and emission reduction at present and in the foreseeable future.
For a long period of time, it has been the mainstream source of machine power.
Statistics show that Chinese internal combustion engines have been the best seller in the world for eight consecutive years, with sales accounting for one third of the world's total.
China also has the most complete systems for spare parts, personnel training, research and development and manufacturing in the world.
In order to better promote the latest technology and products globally, an exhibition will be held simultaneously to display the cutting-edge internal combustion engines, technologies and equipment at the Taihu International Expo Center.
Besides the opening and closing ceremonies, a summit of scientists and entrepreneurs, the event will offer eight forums covering efficient and clean combustion, emissions and reprocessing, fuels and lubricants, high-efficiency supercharging, green and intelligent ship power, and low-carbon energy and efficient utilization.
In addition, 11 top industry experts from all over the country will make keynote speeches at the forums.
With years of development, Wuxi has grown into an important manufacturing base of internal combustion engines in China, with more than 200 companies in a complete industrial chain.
The city is also home to many of the world’s leading manufacturers of high-pressure diesel engines, turbochargers, exhaust gas after-treatment systems and advanced internal combustion engine products.
