The complex will also house modern offices and a training center for AMPS employees and their esteemed customers. Additionally, it will include areas for storage and dyno testing of engines, and load testing for power generators before delivery to customers.

Looking ahead, this strategic collaboration promises to bring among other things:
1. Significant contribution to the energy transition with environmentally-friendly technologies from the mtu product and solution brand for drive, propulsion and power generation.
2. Deliver standby power for safety-critical plants.
3. Deliver integrated drive and propulsion systems for ships and heavy-duty land vehicles
