  • Did you know2019

    Cummins Inc. — universally known as the maker of diesel truck engines that power Class 8 semis and school buses — is simultaneously one of the world's top-5 manufacturers of PEM hydrogen electrolyzers that split water into green hydrogen using renewable electricity. Cummins' New Power segment (built around its 2019 $290M acquisition of Hydrogenics) makes the equipment that could eventually replace diesel engines — including Cummins' own — in heavy transport and industrial applications. The company making the combustion engine at the center of carbon emissions debates is also producing the electrolyzer technology that powers the clean energy alternative: the same Cummins engineering teams that optimized diesel combustion now optimize hydrogen fuel cell powertrains.

  • Capacity2024

    The AI data center buildout has created extraordinary demand for Cummins' Power Systems segment. As of 2024-2025, lead times for large Cummins generator set packages for hyperscale data centers have extended to 72-104+ weeks — driven by AWS, Azure, Google, and Meta ordering generator backup power for multi-gigawatt data center campuses. Cummins has announced significant capacity expansions for its Power Systems business and is one of the primary beneficiaries of the AI infrastructure buildout. The bottleneck is not just engines but also Stamford alternators, automatic transfer switches, and the integration expertise required to commission multi-megawatt generator installations.

  • Origin2023

    Cummins was founded in 1919 in Columbus, Indiana by Clessie Cummins, a chauffeur who borrowed $2,500 from banker W.G. Irwin to commercialize diesel engine technology that was then considered impractical for road vehicles. Cummins spent 25 years building engines before the company became profitable — kept alive through the Great Depression by Irwin family patience. The company that defined the American diesel trucking industry emerged from a century of being the persistent, technically-obsessed underdog: Columbus Indiana is to diesel engines what Detroit is to gasoline cars, and Cummins has never left. Today Cummins engines power ~40% of Class 8 trucks built in North America.
