Basic Information on Idling There are approximately 2.3 Million diesel trucks in the US. (1) 600,000 have sleeper cabs (1) Drivers traditionally idle engines at rest A Typical “over the road” tractor will idle approximately 2500-3000 hours a year Estimated that idling burns 5% of all fuel in US 1.2 Billion gallons of fuel per year are consumed by idling (1) Source: US Census Bureau, 2002 Economic Census

Why do drivers idle? Source: “Heavy-Duty Truck Idling Characteristics”, Results from a Nationwide Truck Survey, UC Davis

What’s the Motivation to Reduce Idling Moving freight accounts for 20% of all energy consumed in the US Truck and Rail consume 35 Billion gal of fuel per year This equates to 350 million metric tons of C02 which is the most prevalent green house gas This equates to the creation of NOx (nitrous oxides) and particulate matter with serious health issues Ground Transportation to 40% of all NOx and 30% of all particulate matter Moving freight accounts for 20% of all energy consumed in the US Environmental and Economic Impact Source: www.epa.gov/smartway/swintro.htm

What’s the Motivation to Reduce Idling? Legislation Current U.S. legislation varies 21 States or Cities have anti-idling laws No Federal idling restrictions enacted at this time EPA encourages idle reduction through Smartway Transport Partnership Sources and more information: www.atri-online.org/research/results/idling_chart.pdf www.epa.gov/smartway

What’s the Motivation to Reduce Idling? CARB (CA Air Resource Board) –On or after Feb. 1 st, 2005 –Limit idling to 5 minutes –Driver is subject to a minimum of $100 fine and possible criminal penalties –2008 New Trucks Diesel APU’s are subject to emission requirements of the truck engine beginning in 2008 Truck engines must have non-programmable engine shut down…after 5 minutes or engine manufacturers must certify NOx idling emission at 30 g/hr –2008 Existing Trucks Driver must manually shut down engines before 5 min.

What’s the Motivation to Reduce Idling? Canada-Voluntary Approach –Rebates 19% off the anti-idling device. $1400 for APU’s, $350 for Climate Control Systems –Idle Free Zones Encourage Truck Stops to be idle free –Education Truck idling education programs –Public Funds $4.5 million for projects to reduce CO2 emissions Sources and More Information –http://www.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca/inter/index.html Legislation

What’s the Motivation to Reduce Idling? Long idle time on long trips for rest Pressure to shift to Team Drivers Focus on reducing wait time at delivery Off Duty Time10 Hours Drive Time Allowance 11 Hours Cycle Clock Restart 34 Hours On Duty Work Day14 Hours Rest for Drivers with Sleepers At least 8 consecutive hours in the sleeper berth plus 2 consecutive hrs off duty/sleeper Hours of Service Source: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Admin.

What’s Motivation to Reduce Idling? An average fleet that idles 10 hours a day and drives 130,000 miles per year with fuel at $2.40 per gallon will spend approximately $8640 in fuel to idle the truck Because idling is harder on the engine than running fleets could spend as much as $1300 more on engine maintenance due to idling A fluctuation in fuel cost of $0.50 per gallon is detrimental to company’s profitability impacting a single truck as much as $10,833 per year A small fleet owner of 100 trucks is conservatively spending over $960,000 in fuel and maintenance cost directly attributed to idling WHAT’S THE ANSWER? Positive Financial Impact to the Customer

TriPac Integrated APU 5 Minute Video Overview
13
Features of an Integrated APU ? Lower overall cost of ownership –Lower diesel fuel consumption (APU versus tractor engine). –Reduce truck engine maintenance (reduce idle miles). Driver retention –Truck cab sleeper compartment climate control and electric power. Improve overall system reliability –Providing truck engine preheating –Provide truck battery charging Better for the environment (less fuel and emissions)
14
What is an Integrated APU ?
15
What’s different about TriPac ? Unit performs great in both hot and cold climates. Lowest cost of ownership of any diesel based integrated APU. –Unmatched fuel economy –Longest service interval of any major competitor. –Start/Stop technology with programmable microprocessor TriPac only runs when required Long life components (proven in truck and trailer applications) Backed by Thermo King Dealer Network –Over 200 locations across North America –Seamless warranty coverage and maintenance programs
16
2006 Product and Options New access door (ease of oil level check and fill). Improved skin design for ease of installation and removal. Programmable maximum run timer 1000 hour maintenance intervals Financing for owner operators and small fleets through IRFS GMP (Guaranteed Maintenance) Program
17
The Difference Between Generator and Inverter Systems Advantages of a Generator Provides a pure sine wave signal. Suitable for large loads. Disadvantages of a Generators Energy is stored in the fuel it burns; you must store enough fuel to meet all required loads. When the generator is on, it is running at 100% capacity no matter what load you are using. Generators require maintenance, oil change, mechanical wear and tear etc. Noise generated just to operate a small appliance.
18
The Difference Between Generator and Inverter Systems Advantages of a Battery/Inverter System Best suited for modest power loads, such loads that facilitates home or office needs. Battery/ inverter system could be located almost anywhere, does not require storage of fuel, maintenance, oil changes etc. Inverter provides exact energy required related to the load. Batteries could be charged in many different ways. Batteries are charged while trailer is driven. No noise associated with running small appliances. Battery maintenance is more readily available in remote areas versus generator. Disadvantages of a Battery/Inverter System Provides a Modified Sine Wave, an issue for delicate appliances such as medical devices, and sensitive electronics.

TriPac Cost Impact Model With START STOP and Truck Integration features the TRI PAC can reduce fuel cost directly associated with idling as much as $8000 per truck in a single year Tripac can reduce large engine maintenance cost by as much as $1100 per truck in a single year Impact on MPG on a tractor is conservatively estimated between.5 to.97 MPG Cost savings for a small fleet of 100 trucks could exceed $900,000 in a single year Please contact your local Thermo King Dealer for more information and a detailed Fleet Payback Analysis
