This year’s keynote speaker is James K. Kamsickas, Chairman and CEO of Dana Incorporated.

The first Summit was a highly successful event held in September 2019 in Louisville, Kentucky, USA. However, the Covid-19 pandemic has prompted us to transform this year’s DPS into a virtual event, combining a high-quality webinar with a digital awards ceremony.

The main presentation topics include:

• Innovative off-road electric vehicle applications
• New developments in fuel cells
• Battery technologies of the future
• Diesel fights back: innovations in traditional engines

The 2020 Diesel Progress Summit Awards will also be awarded as part of this special online event. The award categories are:

• Diesel Engine of the Year (<175 hp).
• Diesel Engine of the Year (>175 hp).
• Electric & Hybrid Application of the Year.
• New Power Technology Award.
• Drivetrain Component of the Year.
• Employer of the Year.
• Engine Distributor of the Year.
• The Diesel Progress Award: Achievement of the Year.
