International Trends in Environmental Regulations for Vehicles Santiago, Chile May 13, 2008 Michael P. Walsh International Consultant Chairman, Board of Directors, International Council on Clean Transportation
Major Global Trends • Environmental Concerns Increasing • Particles • Global Warming • Cleaner and Cleaner Technologies Entering Marketplace • Heavy Duty Diesel Vehicles • Passenger Cars • Motorcycles • Cleaner Fuels Increasingly Critical • Sulfur Levels Approaching Zero • Lead Almost Gone; MMT Increasing Concern
Growth of Vehicle Population in Shanghai, 1988-2002 Most Vehicles Are In Cities E:\Changhong CHEN\对外合作\能源基金会\交通项目\基础数据\机动车统计报表.xls
One Result: Serious Health Concerns • WHO Concludes ~ 800,000 Premature Deaths Each Year From Urban PM • Numerous Studies Consistently Link PM With Premature Deaths, Hospital Admissions, Asthma Attacks, Etc. • No Evidence of a Threshold • Ozone, NO2, Various Toxics Also Serious Health Concerns

Background • Energy Demand in the Transport Sector: Annual Average Growth Rate (%) by Region 2004 - 2030 6 In 2004, 94 % of transport energy based on fossil oil. The share will only slightly decrease to 93 % in 2030. 5 4 Growth (% p.a.) 3 2 1 0 World India China USA Japan Africa Brazil OECD Russia Developing Asia Middle East OECD Europe OECD Pacific Latin America European Union Transition Economies OECD North America Developing Countries Source: IEA WEO 2006
Transportation sector priorities 3 key interventions • Fuel-efficient, low Emitting cars • Low-carbon fuels • Reduced vehicle-miles traveled through congestion pricing, Bus Rapid Transit, etc.
Technology Capable of Cleaning Vehicle Emissions Has Improved Dramatically in the Past 30-40 Years
The Three-way Catalytic Converter: A Familiar Technology Re-Engineered for High Performance in Close-coupled and Underfloor Applications • Layered washcoat architectures and support materials with high thermal stability • Integrated HC adsorption functions • Mounting materials with improved durability • High cell density ceramic or metallic substrates • Insulation schemes for heat management Maximum Emissions Performance Is Only Achieved With Near Zero Sulfur Fuel
Diesel Particulate Filters • Reductions: • -80 to 95% PM • -80-100% HC, CO • -80%+ toxins Trapped PM Cell Plugs Exhaust (CO2, H2O)Out Exhaust(PM, CO, HC)Enter • Issues to balance: • sulfate formation • regeneration and back pressure • Fuel Economy Ceramic HoneycombWall

California’s ZEV History ZEV Reg Implementation ZEV Regulation FC Buses on-road PZEVs created AT PZEVs Created CaFCP Started
ZEV - Status • Goals: • Drive development of ZEVs • Supports bridging technologies like Hybrids • Maximizes air quality benefits with PZEVs • Status • PZEVs marketed by all automakers subject to the regulation, 425,000 PZEVs sold to date • Hybrids very successful in the marketplace, 70,000 AT PZEV hybrids sold to date • 100 Fuel cell vehicles being placed in California in real world demonstration fleets Honda Civic Hybrid AT PZEV
Near-Zero Emission Vehicles Lifetime emissions (VOC+NOx) Partial Zero Emissions Vehicles (PZEVs) • Currently 20 models for sale, including 4 HEVs • 250,000 annual sales (14%) in 2005 • 1,000,000 sales by 2015 (55%)
Near-Zero Emission Vehicles • BMW 325i • Chrysler Sebring • Ford Focus • Ford Fusion • Ford Escape HEV • Honda Accord • Honda Civic HEV • Honda insight HEV • Hyundai Elantra • Kia Spectra • Mazda 3 • Mazda 6 • Mitsubishi Galant • Nissan Altima • Nissan Sentra • Subaru Outback • Toyota Camry • Toyota Prius HEV • VW Jetta • Volvo S40
Fleet Demonstrations • 100Fuel cell light duty vehicles to date • Up to 7Fuel cell buses • Testing, outreach, data collection, validation
Electric bikes in China, P.R. • China Produced Approximately 15 Million Electric bikes in 2007 • This dramatic growth has been largely due to legislation banning gasoline fuelled scooters and motorcycles, introduced from 1996 onwards in several major Chinese cities Sources: Cherry, 2006; Weinert, 2006
Which Countries Are Getting Clean Technologies? • Clean Fuels • Stringent Standards Including Advanced Technology Mandates • Strong Incentives • Economic • Other
My Global Vision For 2015 • Every New Diesel Has PM Filter & Low NOx • Gasoline Vehicles Approaching ZERO Emissions • Hybrid Technologies (Including Plug In Hybrids) Are Mature, Widespread Technology • Small Battery Electric Vehicles (City) Vehicles Widely Used • Fuel Cell Vehicle Numbers Increasing
What Is The Situation Today in Santiago • Good Fuel Quality < 50 PPM Sulfur But Not Taking Advantage of This To Introduce Diesel Filters Widely – Should Be Highest Priority • Much Cleaner Gasoline Vehicles Are Feasible, Especially With Low S in 2009 • Incentives For Hybrids Could Be Expanded
A Short Term Plan For Santiago • Tighten Requirements Sufficiently To Require PM Filters on New Diesel Cars and Buses • Lower Diesel Sulfur to 10/15 PPM • Introduce Euro 5 or Tier 2 Bin 5 for All New Cars and Light Trucks • Introduce Euro 3 For Motorcycles • Implement ASM Based Centralized I/M For All Light Duty Vehicles
Europe Overview • 2007 Developments • Light Duty Euro 5 & 6 Adopted (Too Slow But # Added) • Truck & Bus Euro VI Proposed By Commission
Euro 5+ and Euro 6 Will Include 6X1011 /km Particle Number Limit
Comparison of NOx and PM regulations for HD diesel vehicle among Japan, USA and Europe
Reconciling the Diesel Engine With the Environment:A Comprehensive Approach • Common Aspects-- • Systems approach– fuel change enables clean technologies • Large environmental benefits • Responsive to needs of States to meet air quality goals • Collaborative process Highway Tier 2 Light-duty (1999) 2007/2010 Heavy-duty (2001) Nonroad Locomotive/Marine Tier 4 diesel (2004)
