G-Drive HVO | Cummins Inc.

Cummins G-Drive pioneering sustainable power with HVO

Embark on a sustainable power journey Powered by Cummins G-Drive's cutting-edge generator engines, featuring the innovative capability to run on Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) as fuel. In testing and development with Cummins Power Generation, our diesel engines are all approved to run on HVO for standby applications on any blend of HVO and diesel or HVO only. This capability redefines eco-friendly power solutions, ushering in a new era of sustainable power generation.

HVO fuel stands as a beacon of environmentally conscious power, and Cummins G-Drive is proud to offer this capability in our engines as an advanced fuel option. HVO has many benefits including reducing carbon footprint, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, greatly reduced smoke and particle matter and compatibility with existing product infrastructure. Our commitment to sustainability shines through, Powered by Cummins G-Drive, providing market-leading manufacturers with a greener alternative without compromising on power, reliability or performance. Choosing a Powered by Cummins G-Drive engine means an opportunity to usher in a greener and more sustainable future.

Other emissions considerations

EPA and EU regulations

To protect public health and conserve our planet's natural resources, legislation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and regulatory agencies in the European Union (EU) has, for the past decade, required that pollutants produced by diesel engines - such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC) and particulate matter (PM) - be reduced.

Throughout this time, Cummins Inc. has been at the forefront of the move to meet these new standards, becoming:

The first manufacturer to introduce EPA Tier-2 and Tier-3 products to the market - ahead of the regulatory deadline;
The first manufacturer to introduce EU Stage IIIA compliant generator-drive diesel engines to Europe;
The leader in innovative emissions solutions that focus predominantly on in-cylinder design improvements to eliminate most of the NOx, HC and PM before they are formed.

As a result, our diesel engines are not only very clean, but also retain all of their performance advantages without exhaust after treatment strategies that add cost and complicate maintenance for end users.

Engineering the next generation of power.

With more than 80 years of experience powering commercial, recreational and government applications globally, Cummins offers the reliability and durability operators expect.
