Off-Highway & Power Generation USA 2026 Programme Now Live as Industry Prepares to Meet in Indianapolis This May
The full programme for the 3rd Off-Highway & Power Generation USA 2026 conference is now live, confirming a comprehensive two-day agenda focused on energy-agnostic decarbonisation across non-road machinery and stationary power.
Taking place on 20–21 May 2026 at the Sheraton Indianapolis City Centre Hotel, the event will convene regulators, OEMs, fuel specialists, powertrain engineers and technology providers to examine what meaningful emissions reduction looks like in practice.
With May approaching, delegates can now review the confirmed speaker line-up and detailed session structure spanning ICE, electrification, renewable fuels and power generation technologies.
Off-highway machinery remains heavily reliant on diesel, yet alternatives are advancing rapidly. Electrification, hybridisation, biofuels and e-fuels are all progressing, each with its own technical, economic and lifecycle questions.
At the same time, power generation is under renewed scrutiny. The exponential growth in energy demand, particularly from data centres and AI infrastructure, has placed stationary engines and backup generation firmly in the spotlight.
The 2026 programme has been structured to reflect that reality. This is not a single-technology conference. It is a systems discussion about performance, durability, regulation and commercial viability.
Much like an off-highway duty cycle, the path to decarbonisation is rarely linear. It requires balancing load, terrain, fuel availability and regulatory pressure. The agenda is designed to explore those trade-offs openly.
Day One: Regulation, Powertrains and Electrification
The first day opens with a regulatory and market outlook, including:
Kim Heroy-Rogalski, Chief, Mobile Source Regulatory Development Branch at California Air Resources Board
Allen Schaeffer, Executive Director of Engine Technology Forum
Dr Graham Conway, Director, Industrial Sustainability at Opportune LLP
Powertrain developments feature contributions from:
Professor Dr Greg Shaver, Purdue University
Dr Danan Dou, John Deere Power Systems
Chris Sharp, Southwest Research Institute
Afternoon sessions move into abatement, ICE and electrification, with speakers from:
Proventia
Cambustion
Volvo Construction Equipment
Ymer Technology
Convergent Science
Sessions will address topics including hydrogen combustion NOx variability, advanced exhaust aftertreatment, thermal management for electrification and simulation-led optimisation tools.
Day Two: Power Generation Under Pressure
The second day shifts focus to stationary power and decarbonisation.
Confirmed contributors include representatives from:
Johnson Matthey
Rolls-Royce Solutions America Inc.
Cummins Inc.
Dinex Emission Inc.
EPRI
Neste US
Innospec Fuel Specialities
Kaizen Clean Energy
Sessions will examine:
The evolution of the stationary power market
Emissions from gensets in data centre applications
Emerging fuels and gas turbines
Renewable diesel as an immediate carbon reduction pathway
Dispatchable off-grid microgrids
Catalyst technologies ready for future fuels
A concluding leaders’ panel will address a central question: how can the power generation industry make meaningful emissions reductions while meeting urgent customer demand? 
Off-Highway & Power Generation USA was launched to provide a neutral meeting place for non-road stakeholders at a time when energy debates are often polarised.
Organised by Emissions Analytics, an independent real-world emissions testing specialist, the conference reflects a clear principle: focus on measurable outcomes rather than rhetoric.
From Portable Emissions Measuring Systems for NRMM to laboratory fuels analysis, the company’s testing background informs the conference structure, ensuring discussions are grounded in data, comparability and practical implementation .
Registration is now open.
With the full programme now confirmed and May fast approaching, registration is open for delegates wishing to attend in Indianapolis on 20–21 May 2026 .
The delegate pass includes:
Access to all presentations
Electronic copies of materials
Refreshments throughout
Evening networking reception
Group bookings are available.
