NGVs – New technology? Fiat CNG – the very beginning 1937
NGVs – New technology? During the Second World War
Gas Vehicle Technology? • Compressed NG (CNG) • 200 Bar storage • Liquid NG (LNG) • Cryogenic -160 deg C • Spark Ignition: Iveco, Scania, Mercedes, Volvo FE • HPDI: Volvo Artics
IVECO Homologated Emissions 18
The Environmental Case for Gas on Long Haul Testing of Volvo and Scania products is showing similar results Conclusion is that CO 2 is better than Diesel on Long Haul operations and that Biomethane will improve the well to wheel emissions to a circa 85% improvement. NOx and Particulates are better but numbers are small for diesel anyway. 19
