Katie’s education in the business school at Indiana State University exposed her to many different aspects of business, from finance to marketing, to app development and more. She wasn’t afraid to try different things until she found her fit, and that variety of learning experiences is paying off. Now a Project Manager for the Global Warranty Systems Transformation, Katie helps forge connections between IT and other areas of the company; something she is able to do because she understands multiple points of view. 

Hydrogen use in the transportation sector initially focused on hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV's). More recently, however, hydrogen vehicles powered by internal combustion engines (ICEs) are increasingly receiving attention, especially among medium and heavy-duty trucking applications. But why?

Companies working to achieve their decarbonization goals are increasingly interested in hydrogen engines.

Today global power and technology leader Cummins Inc. (NYSE:CMI) announced the development of a new high temperature steel alloy in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The new material will increase the durability and ultimate efficiency of Cummins’ engines and better serve the company’s customers and fleets. 

Like every invention, Cummins Inc. engines undergo rigorous testing to determine the viability of a new component, design or technology. With test cells installed in 2015, Seymour Engine Plant’s engine research and development capability and capacity significantly increased. Now, the plant’s sustainability leaders are on a mission to reduce test cell’s fuel emissions.
