Not Available for Download - 5. Mass Transit - Use of Alternative Fuels in Transit Buses
Alternative fuel buses account for a very small, but growing, portion of the nation s transit bus fleet. In 1997, 5 percent of the nation s approximately 50,000 transit buses operated on some alternative fuel system. - 5. Sustainable Transport: New Insights From the IEAs Worldwide Transit Study
Over the past year, the IEA has undertaken a study of transit systems in cities around the world. The primary focus has been on bus systems in developing countries, where dilapidated vehicles, old technologies, and rapidly increasing traffic congestion and sprawl are jeopardising the ability of the developing world s premier cities to achieve sustainability. - Cleaner Diesel
Cleaner Diesel can reduce emissions from existing diesel vehicles and some parameters such as low sulfur are required to enable an effective operation of advanced emission control devices. - Cleaner Fuels
The fuels described in the Info Pool are listed below... - Cleaner Fuels Overview
Reducing the pollution that comes from vehicles will usually require a comprehensive strategy. - Cleaner Gasoline
Cleaner Gasoline can refer to lead-free, sulfur-free, or reformulated gasoline (RFG). - Sugarcane as an Energy Source in Brazil
