Alternate fuel technology
|
The clean air arguments are well documented and have influenced the design of automobiles since the 1960s.
|
A market overview of alternative fuel vehicles
|
Why all the emphasis on alternative fuels? Because we’re spending too much on foreign oil, and alternative fuels are the logical nearterm solution to our energy concerns.
|
Clean fuel technology and energy independence
|
Under EPAct, federal, state and local government fleets, energy providers and others were mandated to purchase ever-increasing numbers of alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) for fuels other than petroleum.
|
Clean vehicles, fuels and clean air
|
A switch to unleaded fuel (no small accomplishment) enabled manufacturers to use catalytic converters, and then came closed loop engine management systems with oxygen sensors, and reformulated gasoline blends.
|
Clean indoor vehicles
|
Non-road outdoor units are typically gasoline or diesel, propane or battery-electric powered.
