COLUMBUS, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) announced a new line of Onan RV and Commercial Mobile generators compliant with California Air Resource Board (CARB) Small Off-Road Engines (SORE) 2024 standards. The current spark-ignited product portfolio will be certified to the new regulations. The Onan Quiet Gas portfolio has undergone some mechanical changes and engine calibration adjustments to reach the significant emissions reductions targets. Cummins is also introducing an entirely new generator platform to the Quiet Gas series called Onan QG 4000i.

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.

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?

Cummins Inc. President and CEO Jennifer Rumsey says the climate challenges facing the planet and society will be the company’s “moment to shine.” Speaking at Cummins’ Annual Meeting earlier this month, Rumsey said the company is well positioned to take a leadership role on climate action, helping customers in the transition to cleaner power sources.
