Commercial LNG Fuel Systems For Class 8 Trucks: 

Commercial LNG Fuel Systems For Class 8 Trucks Clean Cities May 8th 2006.

Why LNG For Heavy Duty Trucks?: 

Why LNG For Heavy Duty Trucks? Air quality concerns continue to be a social and political issue Crude and diesel prices continue to rise Increased emphasis on reducing reliance on imported oil LNG for Trucks - an economic and environmental alternative

LNG – More Widely Available: 

LNG – More Widely Available

Natural Gas Proposition Strengthens: 

Natural Gas Proposition Strengthens Diesel to gas price differential grows with higher priced crude. Must use efficiently, and cleanly to realize benefits

Natural Gas Engine Technologies: 

Natural Gas Engine Technologies There are three basic natural gas combustion approaches:

Westport HPDI Technology: 

Westport HPDI Technology High Pressure Direct Injection Pilot diesel ignition Gas injection into cylinder Typically 94% natural gas Diesel Engine Performance remains Same high power and torque Same or higher efficiency Validated in 6 million miles of customer operation NOx reduction 40-50% PM Reduction 60-80% GHG reduction 20%

2006 MY ISX HPDI Engine Specification: 

2006 MY ISX HPDI Engine Specification Based around Cummins ISX engine. Commercially available from Westport.

Outline Product Plans:

Existing HPDI Customer Projects: 

Existing HPDI Customer Projects

In use experience – 1st Generation HPDI (2001/2006): 

In use experience – 1st Generation HPDI (2001/2006) Norcal Waste, San Francisco California 14 Peterbilt 378 with Cummins ISX engines Entered Service August 2001 80,000 lb GVW – 120mi round trip to landfill (6 trips/day) Over 5,500,000 miles of fleet operation to date 400 hp non-EGR 2.5g/bhp-h NOx Introducing 3 new HPDI systems in 2006

In use experience – 2nd Generation HPDI (2005/2006): 

Challenger Motor Freight, Ontario, Canada Five Volvo trucks with Cummins ISX EGR engines 100,000-140,000 lb GVW – up to 500mile round trip 450 hp/1650 lb-ft, 1.2 g/bhp-hr NOx Over 650,000 km compiled to date Interim results: 99% availability In-use fuel consumption within 2% of diesel trucks In use experience – 2nd Generation HPDI (2005/2006)

Fuel Economy & Range: 

Fuel Economy & Range LNG better suited to longer range routes than CNG LNG tank systems offer 500+ mile range Diesel like efficiency – in use.

Example Fuel Savings For LNG Fleet: 

Example Fuel Savings For LNG Fleet Diesel equivalent fuel efficiency translates into real savings with LNG 20 trucks 5 mpg 80,000 mile/yr/tuck

Petroleum Use Reduction: 

Petroleum Use Reduction High diesel displacement with HPDI LNG trucks. LNG trucks are a very effective approach for petroleum use reduction.

LNG Truck Benefits: 

LNG Truck Benefits LNG – one solution for a clean trucking future

LNG Trucks – An Alternative Today: 

LNG Trucks – An Alternative Today Oil prices continue to rise dramatically. LNG reduces air pollutants and greenhouse gases. LNG - an attractive economics for heavy duty trucks. Funding available for fuel and equipment. Proven in heavy duty service. Available today.
