2021 SUSTAINABILITY PROGRESS REPORT | Cummins Inc. 7 ABOUT THE COVER Cummins approached living with the pandemic in its typical workman-like fashion in 2021, advancing the company’s sustainability initiatives, overcoming uncertainties in the global supply chain, and taking a leadership role in the transition to a no-carbon economy. By early 2022, Cummins President and Chief Operating Officer Jennifer Rumsey (1) was welcoming back office employees in the company’s home state of Indiana, consistent with recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as COVID-19 rates fell in the U.S. Midwest. Looking back, 2021 will be remembered at Cummins as a year of innovation, determination, celebration and dedication, as the company worked to reduce its carbon footprint. Cummins, for example, constructed a record number of solar installations at company facilities around the world, including what will be Cummins’ second largest solar array at the Rocky Mount Engine Plant in North Carolina (2). Cummins celebrated recognition from Prince Charles (3), who announced in Glasgow, Scotland, the company was among the inaugural recipients of the Terra Carta Seal, emblematic of industry leadership on decarbonization. The award also reflected the dedication of essential employees across the company, who kept Cummins moving forward in the face of the pandemic. Their efforts were critical as the company worked to reduce the carbon produced by its core products and bring to market the low- and no-carbon technologies that will power the future (4,5). While the challenges are many looking ahead, 2021 showed, yet again, Cummins is up to the task. 1 2 3 4 5 ABOUT COVER //
