Why engine power matters For miners, the performance of ultra-class haul trucks is critical to overall productivity. These machines do the heavy lifting, moving hundreds of tons of material every hour, often in harsh environments and at high altitude. At the heart of this performance is the engine. While many operations rely on proven mid-range horsepower platforms to power vehicles, there c
The old notion that there is no replacement for displacement has met its match in a compelling new solution by Cummins in its Cummins HELM™ 10-liter platform. The Cummins X10 diesel engine is engineered to offer a smarter, more capable alternative to both the larger X12 and the slightly smaller L9 engines it will replace. Some longtime users of the X12 may take note of the downsizing,
Power outages and system downtime carry consequences in every industry, but the impact ranges widely depending on the setting. In most cases, even a few minutes of downtime can lead to professional disruptions, service interruptions and financial losses. But in critical settings like hospitals and healthcare facilities, the stakes are far higher. Uninterrupted power is not just a matter of conveni
The ability to make change starts with measuring the current state. As Peter Drucker famously said: you can’t manage what you can’t measure. Data centers are the backbone of our modern society, and with the rapid rise of AI, they are poised to enable drastic change. As AI revolutionizes industries and digital infrastructure scales at record speed, the carbon footprint of data centers is under g

As extreme weather incidents increase, so do electrical failures. A recent report from Climate Central found that 83% of power outages were caused by weather-related events from 2000 to 2021. This includes wildfires, hurricanes, severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, floods, and many other devastating conditions. Unfortunately, these catastrophic events are not one-off incidents—severe weather will only

It’s difficult to overstate the importance of heat safety awareness. According to data tracked by the CDC, there were over 1,700 heat-related deaths in 2022. And while those with mental illness and chronic conditions are at the highest level of risk, the same data shows that “more than one in five heat-related deaths occur in Americans aged 15 to 44.” Put another way, extreme heat “kills more peop
As miners expand and upgrade their fleets with the latest surface haulage technology, they can be confident these investments will serve their operations well for decades to come, in part due to emerging retrofit options. Cummins has made several announcements in recent months regarding two distinct progressive decarbonization pathways—electrification and clean fuels—with hybrid and dual
