Whether it's hiking, marching, practicing archery or making great leaps in engineering technology, Lindsey seeks excellence every day. The second oldest of four sisters, Lindsey grew up as one of the family's two tomboys -- she loved w
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can convert a higher percentage of a fossil fuel’s energy into power than combustion-based processes and can also use low- and no-carbon fuels such as hydrogen to generate power. The ability to do both, while producing far fewer heat-trapping gases and emissions than an internal combustion engine or a coal-burning power plant, is getting the technology plenty of a
In Dawei City and the surrounding region, a new 16MW power plant is equipping the residents, visitors and businesses of this growing trade hub and tourism destination of southern Myanmar with reliable, Always On power from Cummins.

So, she turned to Mary Bjork, who was sitting nearby (pre-pandemic), and, more importantly, drives an electric vehicle to work. Knowing a charging station can be critical, especially at the height of a cold Minnesota winter, Bjork emphatically agreed and soon Kocik was plugged into a new group of employees she hadn’t known existed. “It turns out there’s an unofficial community of EV owners at C
Hydrogen fuel cells are recognized as a technology necessary for a carbon-neutral future. Cummins fuel cells and hydrogen technologies have already powered applications ranging from grocery trucks to the first PEM electrolyzer in the United States, and now innovation continues in passenger rail in Austria. French railway manufacturer Alstom is among the first railway manufacturers in the

It’s no secret that trucking markets around the world are calling for cleaner fuel alternatives. In 2018, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) launched the Clean Trucking Initiative to “ensure emissions reductions occur in the real world in all types of truck operation.” With a specific reference to heavy-duty trucks and their impact on the environment, the refuse market has
