Recent Hybrid News Volvo announces hybrid heavy trucks planned for 2009 production FedEx adds 75 hybrid delivery vans, plans to then add 75 more; UPS commits to 50; Purolator orders 115 more Azure hybrid delivery vans NYC orders 500 more Daimler Chrysler (Orion/BAE) hybrid transit buses GM, DCX to partner on hybrids Transit bus hybrid order/deliveries between 1000-2000 units International/Eaton report 40-60% fuel reduction in hybrid utility truck Dana/PermoDrive partner on commercial hydraulic hybrid vehicles (refuse target) Eaton unveils hydraulic hybrid shuttle bus

Pre-Production & First Products: 

Pre-Production & First Products International: ready for first commercial production of Class 5-7 hybrid electric trucks in late 2006 Announced at HTUF National Meeting Peterbilt testing hydraulic hybrid refuse truck (63,000 pound GVWR) Pre-production in 2006 Azure parcel delivery and shuttle bus platforms – early production in late 2006 Volvo Trucks announces 2009 production plans

Why Hybrids Are Gaining Traction with Fleets: 

Why Hybrids Are Gaining Traction with Fleets Rising fuel costs: Optimizing urban truck drivelines is becoming critical for fuel efficiency, emissions Major engine changes –increasing cost; decreasing fuel economy – coming in 2007-2010 to comply with EPA emissions requirements Trend toward integrated engine/drivelines in trucks Increasing electrical power needs in heavy vehicles and equipment Idle Management is a growing issue

Slide7: 

Hybrid Truck Users Forum: A Process for Commercialization

Hybrid Truck Users Forum (HTUF): 

Hybrid Truck Users Forum (HTUF) User-driven process to facilitate the commercialization of medium- and heavy-duty hybrid trucks in the U.S. Joint WestStart-U.S. Army/NAC program Also supported by Hewlett Foundation HTUF focuses on commercializing hybrid trucks with dual-use benefits; helping speed commercialization and lower overall costs (leveraging investments) Army supports because wants to see commercial hybrid market to lower costs

HTUF National Meeting 2005: 

HTUF National Meeting 2005 275+ attendees One quarter fleet 13 med. & heavy hybrid vehicles 3 Working Group Meetings EPA hybrid testing meeting Dana Technical Resource Park

HTUF: User-Based Program Expands: 

HTUF: User-Based Program Expands Goal for 2006: expand in targeted fleets and most promising segments Selected fleet locations shown Utility Working Group (FPL) Parcel Delivery Working Group (FedEx/UPS) Selected OEM/ Supplier locations shown Total of over 60 North American Fleets representing nearly 1-million trucks on road participating Fleet and Manufacturer Buy-in Growing Refuse Working Group (City of Chicago)

Focus Area for HTUF:Top Early Hybrid Applications : 

Focus Area for HTUF: Top Early Hybrid Applications “Beach Head” Markets Show Best First Promise

HTUF Working Groups: 

HTUF Working Groups 4 Working Groups of fleet truck users now operating Utility/Specialty trucks – George Survant, Florida Power & Light, lead Parcel Delivery trucks – Sid Gooch, Fed Ex Express; Bob Dengler, FedEx Ground; Robert Hall, UPS – user leads Refuse Truck Working Group – User lead City of Chicago Sanitation Bus Working Group – launched with support of Federal Transit Administration

HTUF “Commercialization Funnel”: 

Deployment, Testing & Production Ramp-up Specification, Commitment & Deployment Familiarization & Outreach HTUF “Commercialization Funnel” Review Phase Commitment Phase Early Market Phase Target Application Market Assessment Commercialization Barriers Assessment Recruitment & Info Develop Pre-Production Buy Down Funding 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Pre-Production Deployment 15-50 Vehicles per application Enact EPAct tax credits Early Production 500+ Units Testing Evaluation Validation Develop additional Purchase funds/ incentives Assist EPA Test Protocol Development Develop EPAct tax credits

First Successes

First HTUF Commitment: Hybrid Electric Utility Truck: 

First HTUF Commitment: Hybrid Electric Utility Truck Class 6/7 Hybrid Electric 40-60% Fuel Economy Improvement Greatly Improved Total Emissions Idle Reduction (shuts off at work site) 25 kW power export Meets or exceeds driving performance requirements 24 pre-production trucks to be assessed in 14 fleets HTUF Utility Working Group Jointly Agreed to Pre-Production Purchases Similar Driveline to Class 5-7 truck, FMTV, shuttle bus markets

Hybrid Testing Complete: 

Hybrid Testing Complete Tested the validator hybrid truck against similar baseline truck over representative utility truck duty cycles Baseline truck 2004 International 4300 with 215 hp engine, Allison automatic transmission Tested on chassis dynamometer for driving portion of duty cycle and stationary in work portion Overall results are better than expected for duty cycle results

Four “Missions”: 

Four “Missions” Mission A 70 miles driving; 3 service/site calls; 1.5 hours hydraulic operation (cycle 1) Mission B 70 miles driving; 3 service/site calls; 1.5 hours hydraulic operation (cycle 1); 1.5 hours 2 kW Mission C 48 miles driving; 3 service/site calls; 3 hours hydraulic operation (cycle 1) Mission D 38 miles driving; 2 service/site calls; 3 hours hydraulic operation (cycle 2)

Fuel Use by Mission: 

Fuel Use by Mission Mission A – 40% reduction in fuel use Mission B – 38% reduction in fuel use Mission C – 58% reduction in fuel use Mission D – 60% reduction in fuel use Fuel Use Reduction Over Baseline:

Next Steps

What’s Next?: 

What’s Next? 100,000 10 100 1000 2,000-3,000 5,000 10,000 Increase Volumes in Markets With Similar Drivelines to Lower Costs Driveline Incremental Cost in $ 75,000 50,000 25,000 15,000 Yearly Similar Driveline Volumes Clean Cities Coalitions can help stimulate fleet interest in heavy hybrids and encourage fleet participation in HTUF

Hybrid Business Case: 

Hybrid Business Case Operational Savings Fuel (the higher fuel goes, the shorter the payback) Maintenance Extended engine life Productivity Gains Faster Launch from Stop, More Effective Braking Idle Reduction – engine shut off Emission Reductions Incentives EPAct HD hybrid incentives Regional/state funding grants and incentives

EPAct National HD Hybrid Tax Credits: 

EPAct National HD Hybrid Tax Credits Credit is based on weight of vehicle and fuel efficiency gains of hybrid system Provides increasing credit for greater efficiency Limits incremental cost Credit available for five years starting in 2005 * based on maximum qualified incremental cost

Hybrid Choice Criteria: 

Hybrid Choice Criteria Know your duty cycle (driving and work components) Type of driving Idle time, in traffic and work site Understand your key costs Fuel and fuel delivery Maintenance What is value of performance gains to your mission? More pickups per day? Quiet operation at work site? Additional emission reductions? Payback should be looked at based on total cost of ownership, not simple payback Leadership
