- Summary:
- This 12-month evaluation is part of a series of evaluations from the U.S. Department of Energy. Through the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), DOE has been tracking and evaluating new propulsion systems in transit buses and trucks. This report focuses on a parallel hybrid-electric diesel delivery van propulsion system operated by United Parcel Service. The propulsion system is an alternative to the standard diesel system and could enable reductions in emissions, primarily particulate matter and oxides of nitrogen, as well as reductions in petroleum use. Hybrid propulsion allows for increased fuel economy, which ultimately reduces petroleum use.
