  1. Idle-Reduction Technology Partnership Idle Reduction Technology Workshop January 30 2006

  2. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop Webasto Continues Its Growth and Influence as an Innovator In The Climate Control Industry In 1974, Webasto began operations in Canada & USA with In-cab air heaters & engine coolantpreheating for heavy-duty markets and sunroofs for light duty vehicles. Privately owned company since 1901, Webasto invests heavily in research and development, with an emphasis on innovative products. May 2004, WPNA celebrated 30-years of operations in North America with its new headquarters in Fenton, Michigan (USA). With over 6,200 employees based in over 40 countries, Webasto services heavy-duty truck, motorcoach, transit, shuttle, school bus, marine, military, off-highway, RV and light-duty vehicle markets.

  3. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop The Many Reasons Why Idle Reduction Hasn’t Become A Part Of Operating Procedure Driver Habits Traditionally Low Diesel Fuel Prices Little concern for the environment No financial consequences

  4. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop The Cost Of Idling Is Impactful In The Air and Under The Hood Emissions/Pollution One liter of diesel fuel produces 2.8 kilograms of Green House Gases (GHGs). An hour of idling produces 11.2 kilograms of GHGs. A year's worth of idling (2,000 hours) produces over 20 tons of GHGs. Engine Wear & Tear Additional Engine maintenance required due to idling results in cost from $200-$2000/yr

  5. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop The Idling Impact on the Wallet and on the Dependence on Foreign Oil Wasted Fuel Fuel waste due to unnecessary idling results in 0.8-1.5 gal/hour (NREL/TP-540-33629, EPA 420-R-02-025) 1.2 billion gallons a year of fuel are consumed in the US by truck idling Operating Cost Studies show annual idling cost range from $3000 to $7000 per truck

  6. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop The Signs Of No-Idling Regulations Begin Enforcement 25-States in the US maintain maximum idling time stipulations. Idling times vary from NO-IDLING (UT) to 15-minutes (NV). Fines have ranged as high as $25,000 (Virginia Dept. of Environmental Quality). Notable proponents include the California Air Resources Board, Environmental Protection Divisions, Air Quality Agencies, Department of Energy, Health Departments and local agencies

  7. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop No-Idling Corridors Begin To Make Their Way Across the U.S. Washington D.C.

  8. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop Light-Duty Vehicle Remote Starters Doing Damage In 2004 over 4 million remote starters were installed in North America. The practice of remote vehicle starting and subsequent unnecessary idling is growing at an alarming rate of 12.6% annually. – source Martec Study Without a change, in 2010 OEM and aftermarket remote start idling will contribute the following annual emissions: 195,350 Tons of CO 803 Tons of NOx 15,673 Tons of HC 6,363,698 Tons of CO2 -Source EPA Approved Laboratory The Tonnage figures shown above do NOT include emission data from passenger vehicles idling not equipped with an OEM or aftermarket remote starting devise.

  9. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop BlueHeat Provides No-Idle Solutions for Light-Duty Engine & Interior Preheating Mounts under the hood, gets power from the battery, and is activated by timer or heater remote. Heater circulates and preheats engine coolant to 180 degrees. Blower fan activates, sending warm air to the interior. No scraping windshields. No-Idling for heat.

  10. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop WPNA Heaters Provide No-Idle Solutions for Cold Starts & In-Cab Heating Engine Coolant Preheaters Forced Air In-Cab HeatingSystems DBW 2010 45,000 Btu/h Northern States Thermo 90 S 31,000 Btu/h Class 7 & 8 TSL 17 17,200 Btu/h Class 3-8 Air Top 3500 12,000 Btu/h 10-hrs/gal. Air Top 2000 7,000 Btu/h 20-hrs/gal.

  11. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop BlueCool Truck Features No-Idle Bunk Cooling Control Panel with fan and temperature control operation. Can be used as a circulating fan. Very low amp draw of 3.5 – 6.5 amps Refrigeration and cold storage unit. Cab mounted air chiller/handler. 1/2 the weight of other systems (300 lbs.) 17,000 Btu’s cold storage unit.

  12. Idle-Reduction Technology Workshop BlueCool Truck Delivers Company & Driver Benefits A cool, quiet night’s sleep with no interruptions from engines starting, compressors starting, or temperature variations. Increased safety from getting a good night’s sleep. Ability to get a cool night’s sleep regardless of state/local non-idling ordinances. Elimination of fines for idling. Capability to keep the cab below 70 degrees F for 9-hrs. in 90+ degree F ambient temperatures.
