Clean Diesel for Cars, Trucks and SUVs : 

Clean Diesel for Cars, Trucks and SUVs

What is Clean Diesel? -- A System : 

Emissions Treatment Clean Diesel System Advanced Engine Technology Cleaner Diesel Fuels Ultra low Sulfur Diesel Fuel produces lower emissions and enables advanced emissions treatment systems (catalysts and filters) Particulate filters, oxidation catalysts, SCR reduce emissions of ozone-forming compounds (NOx and VOCs), trap and eliminate fine particles Advanced engine electronic combustion control , fuel injection systems & turbochargers optimize performance and low-emissions What is Clean Diesel? -- A System

Clean diesel Cars, Trucks and SUVs poised for Comeback in the US: Why?: 

Clean diesel Cars, Trucks and SUVs poised for Comeback in the US: Why? Technology vastly improved from past Fuel economy– 20-40 percent better More consumer friendly – noise, smoke, odor Performance: faster acceleration than gasoline Diesels require no sacrifice in performance/utility – towing, hauling, etc. Good Progress on meeting more stringent emissions challenges Gasoline- diesel equivalent standards 2004-2007; Cleaner diesel fuel available --mid-late 2006 Increasing consumer and societal demands Sustained higher gasoline prices Reliance on imported oil, energy conservation Need for near-term energy conservation strategy prior to wide scale adoption of fuel cells/hydrogen in 2050 (NAS, 2004) Global warming

Clean Diesel for Cleaner Air: 

Clean Diesel for Cleaner Air More fuel efficient = less fuel burned = fewer emissions. Diesels inherently low in primary ingredient of ozone – hydrocarbons; also low in carbon monoxide. Cleaner fuels and new emissions filter technology reduce particulates and NOx emissions Diesel cars, trucks and SUVs small contributors to emissions inventory: (Source US EPA Trends Report, 2003) 0.05 % NOx; 0.02% PM2.5; 0.038% VOCs

The Diesel Emissions Challenge: Progress & Potential: 

The Diesel Emissions Challenge: Progress & Potential Nitrogen Oxides Particulate Matter

Clean Diesel Engines Save Energy: 

Clean Diesel Engines Save Energy On average, clean diesel engine gets 20-40 percent better mpg than gasoline counterpart Some reports of 63 percent better Current diesel models earn 3 of top 10 highest DOE/EPA fuel economy ratings

Modern Clean Diesel Technology: 

Modern Clean Diesel Technology Higher Fuel Efficiency Means Reduced Dependence on Foreign Oil Lower Global Warming Emissions Saving 350,000 Barrels of Oil/Day Through Expanded Use of Light Duty Clean Diesel Engines Over 20% Fewer Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Diesel vs. Gasoline

Slide18: 

Fuel Consumption Diesel vs. Gasoline Remark: Comparable engine rating/displacement in each vehicle class The Diesel Engine of Tomorrow 10 20 30 40 50 MPG Minivan Compact SUV Diesel Gasoline Gasoline Diesel Diesel Gasoline Delta CO2 26 % 45 % 28 % Slide used with permission of Robert Bosch Corp. www.bosch.com

Diesel Fuel: More energy than gasoline, Familiar, available, getting cleaner: 

Diesel Fuel: More energy than gasoline, Familiar, available, getting cleaner 10-12 % more energy per gallon than gasoline; According to EPA, available at about 1/3 of all fueling stations today. Same infrastructure, tanks etc as gasoline; easy to increase capacity and availability Diesel cars and SUVs fill up less often– higher range per tank.. > 600 miles Cleaner diesel fuel (lower sulfur 500 -15 ppm) required nationwide mid-2006.

What cars, light trucks and SUVs have a diesel engine option today? :

Light-Duty diesel vehicles should be Part of National Energy Strategy: 

Light-Duty diesel vehicles should be Part of National Energy Strategy Diesel powered cars, trucks and SUVs offer near-term energy efficiency benefits. California Air Resources Board California Energy Commission Environmental Protection Agency National Academy of Sciences US Department of Energy Energy Information Administration Diesels should qualify for Incentive Tax Credits

Clean Diesel Vehicles: 

Clean Diesel Vehicles Clean Diesel technology is a proven, efficient and affordable means of reducing petroleum consumption now. Advanced emissions control systems will effectively address particulate and NOx emissions; New diesels are nothing like the old diesels: quiet, no smoke, great power and performance, and fuel efficiency.
