USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 6 granted patents across 9 technology areas, active 2019–2023. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: Y02T (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION).
The verdict
Cummins holds 6 US patents across 9 technology areas, rank #39,476 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Cummins Electrified Power NA Inc. has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2019 and 2023, placing Cummins Electrified Power NA Inc. at rank #39,476 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02T (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION). As a US Corporation, Cummins Electrified Power NA Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Cummins sits between CT Energy Ltd. (6 patents, rank #39,472) and Cytac Technology Limited (6 patents, rank #39,480) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 27.5/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 3 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Cummins Electrified Power NA Inc.'s 14.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Cummins Electrified Power NA Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Cummins's 6 grants land it in the top 76% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
