Cummins announced the shipment of nearly 37,000 EPA 2010-certified engines with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) aftertreatment since their introduction in January. Engine shipment volumes and early customer experiences have further confirmed the company's confidence in SCR to not only meet near-zero nitrogen oxide (NOx) standards, but also deliver fuel economy improvements and to serve as a foundation for future clean-diesel developments.
Cummins has manufactured and shipped nearly 37,000 EPA 2010-certified engines to customers across North America through the end of September. Cummins engine plants in Jamestown NY, Rocky Mount NC, and Columbus IN serve more than 60 customers.
Customer feedback also confirms the benefits of Cummins integrated engine and aftertreatment systems, including its ISX15, with reports that the engines are delivering up to 6% better fuel economy than their EPA 2007 counterparts.
