Descriptiontext

Cummins Inc. is a global power and hydrogen technology company headquartered in Columbus, Indiana, and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: CMI). Its natural gas engine business — the focus of the source data — has accumulated more than 30 years of experience developing spark-ignition natural gas engines for commercial heavy-duty applications. The portfolio centers on the X15N natural gas engine, an industry-first product for long-haul trucking rated at up to 500 hp and 1850 lb-ft of torque, with emissions certified at near-zero NOx levels (approximately 90% below the current EPA standard). Complementary offerings include the HSK78G engine validated for hydraulic fracturing applications, high-efficiency natural gas generator sets for data center and microgrid use cases, and integrated CNG fuel system solutions delivered through the wholly-owned Cummins Clean Fuel Technologies subsidiary. A distinctive technical feature across the portfolio is the three-way passive catalyst aftertreatment system, which eliminates routine diesel-style filter replacements.
