Roush joins Engine Technology Forum

The Engine Technology Forum announced Feb. 3 that Roush Enterprises Inc. has become its newest member.  

The not-for-profit ETF organization is dedicated to promoting understanding of the benefits of advanced engines, fuels and technologies.  

ETF members are leaders in those industries. 

Founded in 1976 by motorsports legend Jack Roush, the company has established itself as a premier global provider of automotive performance products and clean-fuel technology solutions.  

With a workforce of over 4,500 employees worldwide, Roush also provides creative solutions for advanced mobility, aerospace, defense and theme-park industries.  

Roush CleanTech is an advanced clean-transportation solutions provider for the commercial truck industry. 

“Since our inception, we have focused on developing innovative and reliable technologies for the medium-duty market,” said Todd Mouw, Roush CleanTech’s executive vice president. “Roush CleanTech designs, manufactures and installs clean-technology fuel systems, including propane autogas, for commercial vehicles and school buses across North America. Our people take ideas and make them real for clients in some of the world’s most dynamic industries.”  

Mouw said Roush sees a bright future for internal-combustion engine technology in new and conversion applications.  

“More than 45,000 vehicles—school and shuttle buses, work trucks and other vehicles—are on the roads with Roush technology,” he said. “Our commitment to being a leader in advanced engine technology includes helping to educate and inform people about the policies that drive our customers’ needs. Our work aligns well with the Engine Technology Forum, which is dedicated to educating others about the tremendous value of advanced engines to economies around the world. We’re pleased to join other industry leaders by supporting this important effort.”  

ETF Executive Director Allen Schaeffer said, “Our forum members are excited to welcome the Roush team. We’re looking forward to the insights they’ll share and their contributions to our constantly evolving scope of work. Advanced engines and fuels help our world evolve, and progress, to meet new challenges. And Roush’s commitment to environmental responsibility and innovation will help the forum share this story with others around the world.” 

The forum brings together a broad range of stakeholders including advanced engine users, public and environmental interest groups, as well as government officials to encourage the exchange of information and ideas about the use of advanced engine technology.  

ETF is also the only organization dedicated to promoting and defending a viable future for internal-combustion engines in all applications. 

The Engine Technology Forum was established in October 2023.  

It evolved from the widely known Diesel Technology Forum, which was founded in 2000.  

ETF is based in metropolitan Washington, D.C. 

Roush’s U.S. operations are based in Livonia, Michigan.
