SEPTEMBER 26, 2013

Researchers at Georgia Tech have compared medium-duty (MD) electric and diesel urban delivery trucks in terms of life-cycle energy consumption, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and total cost of ownership (TCO). Vehicles operated in states heavily dependent on coal for producing electricity showed higher emissions. Click to enlarge.

It is always a learning process to discover how the robots respond to new classes of obstacle; responding to this on the fly in a new environment is extremely challenging. We also deployed the robots in an old underground fortress to examine the system in an urban-like underground environment.
