Cummins Inc. Becomes One Step Closer to Certifying 40 Sites by 2020

Cummins Inc., a Fortune 500 U.S. manufacturer, pledges to certify 40 of its manufacturing sites to the ISO 50001 energy management standard by 2020. The latest site to reach this goal, while also becoming Superior Energy Performance™ (SEP) certified, is Cummins Seymour Engine Plant and Technical Center in Seymour, Indiana. In the process, Cummins Seymour cut its annual energy expenditures by 15.3% over two years, saving $2.75 million, and put in place a system to continuously build on those savings.

DOE Introduces the 50001 Ready Utility Network Series

The launch of the 50001 Ready Utility Network Series attracted more than 80 participants with a shared interest in ISO 50001. The series is the Department of Energy’s (DOE) first facilitated forum for utilities, public benefit administrators, third-party implementers, consultants, and regulators to interact, share success stories, and learn how to leverage 50001 Ready.

The next session is scheduled for May 16, 2018 at 12 p.m. ET and will feature Ed Birch of the Strategic Energy Group. Future forums will occur on the third Wednesday of every other month.
