Study * Japan - Trucks case CO2 emissions by using off-board AC systems

Tokyo,Japan -Auto Blog Green (USA) , by Sebastian Blanco -Jul 13, 2007: -- Tokyo Electric Power Co and Hino Motors, Ltd have announced the results of a 14-month test of a jointly-developed cab heating and air-conditioning system, called Stop Idling, where parked trucks drew power form an external source instead of leaving the engine running. The result: CO2 emissions dropped about 97 percent and fuel costs by about 98 percent. It only makes sense that these numbers must be comparing the off-board system's pollution and cost to a truck's self-contained system, otherwise those numbers would be 100 percent, right?...
