PROFILE |
 |
What do Westport Innovations, Ford, and Cummins Engine have in common? They all want to fuel diesel engines, naturally. Westport has teamed up with the two auto industry leaders to develop fuel systems that will enable diesel engines to run on natural gas rather than diesel. With Ford, the world's #1 truck maker, Westport is developing a fuel system for light-duty trucks. Similarly, Westport and Cummins, the #1 maker of large diesel engines, are developing a system for heavy-duty trucks and stationary power generators. The companies expect the systems to meet future low-emission standards instituted by agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency. Westport hopes to solidify relationships with other OEMs as well.
