Now in its fifth year, the Diesel Progress Summit is a unique one-day conference and awards program for the engine and powertrain technology industry. It covers powertrain technologies used in construction, agriculture, mining, forestry, and marine, as well as on-highway commercial vehicles. With dramatic changes in engines and powertrains being driven by emission regulations and advances in hybrid, electrification and other technologies, there has never been a greater need for relevant and authoritative information.
