CO 2 and NO x certification test data for heavy-duty diesel engines certified from 2002 through 2019. This has resulted in higher catalyst loading per volume of substrate and led to downsizing of systems from those available in 2010. Source of data: US EPA (2019). Chart: MECA.

Turbocharging and downsizing can also yield fuel consumption reductions. Downsizing is an important strategy applicable in combination with technologies that increase engine torque, such as turbocharging or supercharging. Part of the gain from advanced-level CI diesel engines comes from downsizing.

The two agencies are continuing with their analysis, and will incorporate the upcoming National Academies update of the 2002 NAS Report, which presents technology effectiveness estimates. Cylinder deactivation: deactivates the intake and exhaust valves and prevents fuel injection into some cylinders during light-load operation.
