Cummins’ biggest opportunity to expand its product stewardship beyond the upfront design of its products is in working with customers to improve the efficiency of the company’s products in use. One of Cummins’ sustainability plan goals is to partner with its customers to improve the fuel efficiency of the company’s products in use, and by extension reduce carbon dioxide (CO2). The company wants to cut CO2 emissions by nearly 24 million metric tons, saving customers up to $7 billion through greater fuel efficiency, by the end of 2020. By 2020, Cummins expects to work with 20 percent of its customer base, touching nearly 2 million engines as it tailors engine specifications to customer applications. The company wants to ensure customers have the latest tools to improve fuel efficiency. Cummins has its own supercomputer, Clessie 2.0, which powers sophisticated design programs. It plays a key role in Cummins’ efforts to reduce the amount of material it uses in its products without affecting robustness. PREV 3 NEXT CUMMINS SUSTAINABILITY // PRODUCT STEWARDSHIP PARTNERING WITH CUSTOMERS FOR BETTER FUEL EFFICIENCY Cummins provides a complete set of collaborative solutions to help customers maximize their fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. From the development of products that are optimized for specific market segments, to the use of software to assist in the truck specification process, to the ability to customize electronic engine settings and parameters. Cummins helps customers reduce their carbon footprint throughout the life of the product. Click red circles in the photo for more detail.
