ICCT: decline in diesel sales will have negligible impact on attainment of European CO2 emission standards

Green Car Congress

Other technologies—such as efficiency improvements in gasoline engines as well as the rollout of hybrid electric power trains—offer more compelling and cost-effective pathways to reducing CO 2 emissions from European passenger cars, the ICCT says. For instance, hybrid electric vehicles and diesel cars in the small (e.g.,

MECA report finds additional NOx emission reductions from new heavy-duty trucks achievable and cost-effective

Green Car Congress

The transportation sector was responsible for over 7 million tons of NO x emissions in the US in 2014, with 50% of this sector’s NO x attributed to heavy-duty on- and off-road vehicles and equipment. CO 2 and NO x certification test data for heavy-duty diesel engines certified from 2002 through 2019. Source of data: US EPA (2019).

MECA report assesses technology feasibility for heavy-duty diesel trucks to meet lower NOx standards by 2024

Green Car Congress

The Manufacturers of Emission Controls Association (MECA) released a report assessing market-ready technologies being commercialized by suppliers of emission control and efficiency components for heavy-duty diesel vehicles to meet lower intermediate standards for oxides of nitrogen (NO x ) by 2024 as a transition to final standards in 2027.

Ford study suggests GDI engines can meet coming California and US PM emissions standards over 150k miles; more work to be done

Green Car Congress

PM mass emissions rates for the FTP and US06 drive cycles as function of vehicle mileage. As reported in a paper in ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology , the results showed that GDI technology has the potential to meet the upcoming California LEV III and US EPA Tier 3 PM mass standard of 3 mg/mi (phasing in over MY2017?2021)

Continental introducing innovative annular catalytic converter for near-complete NOx reduction to meet RDE and SULEV 30 standards

Green Car Congress

Continental will present an innovative close-coupled annular catalytic converter that supports near-complete NO x conversion in downsized turbocharged gasoline engines at the 37 th Vienna Motor Symposium next week. On the US front, the LEV III SULEV 30 standards stipulate a 70% reduction in fleet-average nitrogen oxide emissions by 2025.
