CATERPILLAR TO SPONSOR 2013 HIGH HORSEPOWER SUMMIT: MAKING NATURAL GAS PRODUCTS A REALITY



Caterpillar is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the 2013 High Horsepower Summit (HHP) Summit, September 17-19 in Chicago, Illinois.  This technology and end-user conference is North America's leading conference on the use of natural gas to fuel high horsepower operations.  As an industry leader in the design and manufacture of dual-fuel and natural gas engines, Caterpillar will feature keynote speakers on the HHP agenda, share the company's natural gas strategy and focus on its commitment to continue to deliver the best customer value for energy and power systems operations, rail, marine and mining applications.

"It is exciting to be part of the major energy transformation currently underway throughout North America," said Joel Feucht, Caterpillar's general manager of gas engines. "In delivering solutions for this new energy reality, we must pull together across the value chain, and the HHP Summit is a wonderful opportunity to collectively learn, share and discuss industry best practices. Within Caterpillar, we are investing, innovating and partnering with our customers and technology experts, such as Westport Innovations, to respond to this evolving market and enable significant fuel cost savings. We look forward to sharing our findings at the 2013 HHP event."
