Rolls-Royce Power Systems road map for climate-neutrality; 35% cut by 2030 from 2019; key role of mtu engines

Green Car Congress

By 2030, the Rolls-Royce business unit is to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 35% compared to its 2019 level through the use of new net zero and zero carbon technologies. Or it relates to fuels such as hydrogen, that would not at all emit CO 2 at the exhaust pipe. electricity from fossil-fired power plants).

Amminex City-SCR upgrade delivers gaseous ammonia for improved SCR conversion of NOx; avoiding high off-cycle emissions

Green Car Congress

Studies have found that despite meeting more stringent regulatory standards for exhaust emissions during type approval, many vehicles equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems have significantly elevated emissions of NO x during in-use driving—particularly when operating in urban traffic.

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

Green Car Congress

The MECA assessment is based on the implementation timeline presented by CARB staff at a January 2019 public workshop as well as the assumptions laid out in the CARB staff white paper released in April 2019.

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

Green Car Congress

It is important to state that there are several technology paths to achieve these levels of emissions, and some of them can simultaneously lower greenhouse gas emissions, such that the NO x reductions do not compete with the CO 2 reductions.

Michelin doesn’t want you to buy as many EV tires

Baua Electric

“You still have the same effect of this incredibly high torque and the increased weight of the vehicle, so that we just leverage the same technologies to accompany these trends, whether it’s fully electric or hybrid.” During pyrolysis, gas is captured, which can in turn be used to help heat the pyrolysis oven. As the U.K.
