  2. HD Truck Fuel Economy Task Group Goals: • In advance of rule development, discuss key issues for industry and users • Make sure beneficial fuel saving technology included in rule design • Seek areas of agreement; identify key areas of concern • Work collaboratively to develop recommendations • Provide feedback to regulators

  3. Consensus to Date • 3-4 Vocational segments based on CalHEAT findings are acceptable and outline way trucks generally used • Duty cycles are critical to successful Phase 2 • However: want to recommend fewest number of meaningful “cycles” that “bound’ how a truck generally used (cannot specifically match how EVERY truck is specifically used) – 80% solution • Accepted by industry and fleets as adequate

  4. 6 Truck Categories – Based on How Trucks Operate • Younger Trucks; High Annual VMT • Mostly higher average speed, highway driving Class 7/8 Tractors • Over the Road • Between cities; Drayage; Day Cabs • Includes second use trucks; trucks w/ smaller engines • Utility trucks, construction, etc. • Lots of idle time; Lots of PTO use • Short Haul/ • Regional • ∙ Commercial use; Automotive OEMs & volumes • Cargo, freight, delivery, collection • Lower VMT; Lower Average speed; Stop-start • Cargo, freight, delivery, collection • Higher VMT; Higher Avg speed; Both urban/ highway Class 3-8 Vocational Work Trucks • Urban • Rural/ • Intracity • Work site • support Class 2B/3 • Pickups/ • Vans 4

  5. Additional Segmentation Needed for FE Goals? One option: Creating “bins” similar to Class 8 – correlate the bins to weight class groupings. Other options: could be tied to more specific applications – but that can add significant complexity

  6. Key Issues • Compile and recommend 3-6 specific Duty Cycles that are sufficient to cover the basic applications while allowing new technology to demonstrate its worth • Tech such as transmissions, aero, light weighting, hybrid, thermal recovery, work site idling • Are there some duty cycles so custom they must be included?

  7. Possible Consolidation Class 8 Tractors • Highway line haul – ARB HHDDT; NESCAUM • Regional haul – modified ARB HHDDT; HTUF Class 8b Regional • Intermodal Class 8 Drayage Truck – Univ. of Texas/Port of Houston; TIAX/POLA/POLB • Pick Up and Delivery – HTUF Class 4 and HTUF Class 6 Parcel Delivery; CILCC • Beverage - CILCC variant? • Neighborhood Refuse Truck – NREL/Ohio State University/Oshkosh • Utility Service Truck – CILCC with work-site operation • Refrigeration- Handled within the Utility segment due to combination of driving cycle and work-site cycle • Shuttle Bus– (Airport, Rental, Municipal) – truck cycle or bus cycle? • Transit Bus – Manhattan; Orange County: CBD Urban Voc Work Voc

  8. Possible Duty Cycles • Urban/suburban driving • CILCC; Pick-up and Delivery (PDDS); transit cycles; other? • Issues: # stops; extreme cycles? • Intracity/Rural driving • CILCC with high speed component?; regional class 8 variant; UDDS? other? • Work site support cycles • CILCC for driving; utility work cycle or variant for idle component? • Refuse stands out as a potentially unique/intense duty cycle

  9. General Approach for Cert • Combine limited set of appropriate duty cycles into ONE test cycle – perform only one test (or simulation) • OEM would use for certification just the results on the duty cycle of intended use • Other data could be used to inform fleets/users what to expect if used in different cycles
