    Abstract: Systems and methods for mitigating exhaust gas emissions via cylinder deactivation are provided. A system includes a controller coupled to an internal combustion engine and an electric motive device. The controller includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores instruction that, when executed by the processor, cause the controller to: command the internal combustion engine to operate in a cylinder deactivation mode whereby at least one cylinder of a plurality of cylinders of the internal combustion engine is deactivated; receive a power request exceeding a current power output from the internal combustion engine; command the electric motive device to provide a supplemental power output based on the received power request; and, subsequent to commanding the electric motive device to provide the supplemental power out, activate the at least one cylinder of the plurality of cylinders of the internal combustion engine.

    Abstract: A method of controlling a fixed cylinder deactivation (CDA) system of an engine system is provided. The method includes: deactivating, by a controller, a cylinder of the engine system to operate the engine system in a fixed CDA mode; determining, by the controller, a temperature of an injector tip nozzle associated with the cylinder; comparing, by the controller, the temperature of the injector tip nozzle to a threshold temperature; and in response to determining that the temperature of the injector tip nozzle is greater than the threshold temperature, activating, by the controller, the cylinder.
