Miami-Dade County A History of Environmental Leadership 2000 - Adopt-a-Tree Program = over 184,300 trees 2002 Began Purchasing hybrid vehicles – Currently have 524 electric/gasoline 2007 - Miami-Dade County established a Sustainable Buildings Program (SBP) for County facilities 2009 - Creation of Office of Sustainability to track climate change, energy efficiency, smart transportation and solid waste initiatives. 2009 – MDT began operating Hybrid buses. Currently have 43 diesel/electric buses First in the State to have an enforceable vehicle emissions program .

CONT’D Water Conservation Programs – over 30 million gallons per day saved since 2007 Single-Stream Recycling Program - 2x amount since 2008; Approximately 1.2 million tons of waste processed annually. 240,000 tons of materials being processed into Biomass The energy generated from the County’s waste to energy plant is enough to supply the electrical needs of 90,000 homes in MDC

The Technology Average expected life of the vehicles is seven (7) years Uses an advanced hydro-mechanical series drive system; designed to significantly reduce fuel consumption & increase productivity Brake to energy recovery technology Hydro-mechanical series drive system uses hydraulic pressure to get from house-to-house Once vehicle exceeds 40mph, it will automatically begin using diesel fuel while the hydraulic tanks regenerate.

AUTOMATED HYBRID HYDRAULIC REFUSE VEHICLE PROJECT Total Project Cost: $5,250,000 Voluntary Cost Share: $3,750,000 Description: Fifteen (15) 2002 Peterbilt Packers with an approximate tare weight of 35,000lbs were replaced with fifteen (15) new Automated Hydraulic Hybrid Refuse Vehicles. Trucks will utilize hybrid technology to achieve a 45% reduction in fuel consumption & emissions of PM; Nox; HC and CO2

PROJECT DESCRIPTION One of the largest government owned & operated waste collection & disposal system in the SE USA Recycle services to over 320,000 households in unincorporated MDC & nine (9) municipalities Helps to alleviate environmental impact on the degrading air quality Targets routes serving neighborhoods with children at risk, elderly residents, others affected by respiratory illnesses, areas with poor air quality.

COMPARISON DATA

RESULTS ???? FUEL SAVINGS - $358,693 CO2 EMISSION REDUCTION 1,027 fewer tons E Equivalent to removing 196 passenger cars from the road Brake Maintenance Savings - $130,548 Zero brake jobs performed on the H hybrid reuse trucks since the initial purchase.

ANTICIPATED EMISSION REDUCTIONS

ACTUAL EMISSIONS SUMMARY

OTHER BENEFITS Gaining experience with diesel hydraulic hybrid technology Sending an important message to the community Setting an example that bold steps need to be taken to conserve our valuable resources Protect the climate, the environment & air quality A more stringent idle reduction policy Human health benefits in the reduction of illnesses, such as emphysema, asthma and lung cancers Health benefits of $15,000 savings for 0.0110 Tons of Annual diesel PM reduction

FAQ How much does it cost? Performance? Fuel Saving? We are targeting an ROI of 3 to 4 years over a standard truck Performance? Improved 0-25MPH acceleration when baseline against different trucks with 350Hp engines and standard automatic transmissions Fuel Saving? For typical 100 foot start-stop operations the fuel savings are between 30% and 50% over baseline vehicles
