Other consortium members include Ford, IAV, BP, University of Nottingham and Imperial College London. The VIPER project builds on our exhaust gas energy recovery work already underway for the HyBoost program. The new VIPER project aims to show how a reduction in CO 2 emissions of 4.5% —CPT engineering director Guy Morris.
