We want more climateprotection, more clean electric cars on our roads and more use of green electricity. Purchase and installation of the wallboxes are supported with a grant of €900. So far, around 385,000 applications for around 470,000 charging points have been received. We are already promoting around 470,000 new charging points.
What initially motivated the Berlin Fire Department’s concluded tendering procedure were the growing demands with regard to environmental protection and the complex exhaust systems of conventional chassis, which are having an increasingly negative effect on the design and operation of firefighting vehicles.
Even though we are in unprecedented times, due to the ongoing pandemic, we have to make sure that climateprotection and sustainability efforts remain at the forefront. This is why we have taken the decision to neutralize the carbon emission of all our LCL shipments. —Tim Scharwath, CEO DHL Global Forwarding, Freight.

The tower is built using standard steel pipes that are readily available and transportable. Bendix’ innovation include: The generator is no longer located in the nacelle, which means the new and much taller tower is no heavier than the current ones. The tower’s mass no longer increases disproportionately to its height.
Currently unavoidable CO 2 emissions are offset by investments in certified climateprotection projects elsewhere. The IONITY fast-charging network created by Volkswagen and other car manufacturers will offer green power at about 400 charging locations on European motorways, wherever available. Earlier post.)
California’s ClimateProtection Strategies do not help meet NAAQS Standards. The resulting technological transformations have dramatically increased the menu of options available to policy makers to meet the state’s air quality and GHG reduction goals. … Click to enlarge. Click to enlarge.
Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO or renewable diesel), which is already commercially available today, reduces CO 2 emissions by up to 90%. HVO allows our customers to significantly reduce their greenhouse gas emissions with existing vehicles and engines and to make an important contribution to climateprotection today.
In 2013, Daimler, Ford and Nissan signed a three-way agreement for the joint development of a common fuel cell system to speed up availability of zero-emission technology and significantly reduce investment costs. Click to enlarge. Earlier post.) Daimler is planning for sereis production of F-Cell vehicles from 2017 onwards.
More specifically, he suggests that other than supporting fundamental R&D, programs to promote alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) “ are not currently warranted for climateprotection. The paper is available from the Social Science Research Network (SSRN). Available at SSRN. DeCicco, John M.
Second generation biofuels coming from agricultural residues are now technologically ready and available for production and application. Hence cellulosic ethanol can make a significant contribution to climateprotection, so making it for us a building block of sustainable mobility. sunliquid process.
The US, Canada, and Mexico have submitted a proposal to strengthen climateprotection under the Montreal Protocol— the international treaty that phases out the production of a number of substances responsible for ozone depletion. Climateprotection from the Montreal and Kyoto protocols. Source: IGSD.
minutes—among the quickest charging rates currently available of any EV. EPA estimates are not yet available. Available in e-tron GT models and standard in RS e-tron GT models, all-wheel steering provides a maximum of 2.8 This allows it to replenish its battery from 5-80% in just 22.5 Three-chamber air suspension.
million (US$12 million) to subsidize the project within its “Technologies for Sustainability and ClimateProtection – Chemical Processes and Use of CO 2 ” scheme. The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is granting a total of €9.2 The project started on 1 July 2013, and is expected to last three years.
At Volkswagen, we are convinced that climateprotection and efficient technologies are drivers for economic growth. The Foshan facility was the first car factory in China to receive a Triple-Star Green Building Award, the highest state award available for environmentally compatible factory design.
Electromobility will only significantly contribute to environmental and climateprotection when the electricity from the batteries has been generated high efficiently and with less CO 2. We are also developing innovative storage technologies because in our latitudes these forms of energy are not available 24/7.
The software solutions are made available to the partners online (“Software-as-a-Service”). With the integration of moovel, we are taking the next big step in the direction of the Deutschlandticket and promoting the mobility transition towards more climateprotection.
We need e-fuels to achieve our climateprotection goals. At our conference in Munich, we initiated an international e-fuels dialogue, which we now want to continue so that we can make electricity-based fuels available for all modes of transport. The aim is to consolidate international exchange.
Use cases for bidirectional charging Because vehicle-to-home is the simplest bidirectional charging use case to implement, and because Californians are already motivated by the states’ history of rolling blackouts due to overtaxed grids, V2H solutions will lead the way in marketplace availability.
Initiated by the City of Cologne and regional energy supplier RheinEnergie AG, SmartCity Cologne is a cooperative platform for partners throughout the region to pilot technologies and services that promote climateprotection and energy transition.
Hydrogen and fuel cells are an ideal combination for climateprotection as well as for the energy and transport revolution. LNVG will rent the premises for the filling station from evb and will make it available to Linde AG, which will also be responsible for the operation and construction permit.
Among the highlights of the report: The three least-efficient airlines (Lufthansa, SAS, and British Airways) were collectively responsible for one-fifth of transatlantic available seat kilometers and burned 44%-51% more fuel per passenger kilometer than the most efficient. carbon intensity) in 2014.
models will also be exclusively available with fully electric drive. However, should CO 2 emissions be unavoidable along the supply chain, these will be compensated by investments in climateprotection projects. 3 will be available with three battery sizes. 100 kW DC charging is optionally also available.
Hydrogen is a versatile energy source that has a key role to play in the energy transition process and therefore in climateprotection. Initial prototypes were then made available at the IAA Mobility 2021 for visitors to experience in action as shuttle vehicles. Earlier post.)
Mayors’ ClimateProtection Agreement. Well, just as an aside, I wonder if that workshop that we attended been put on by people who were in their 40s or 50s, if their sense of how much patience they have and how much time is available might be diminished. They coined that name.
At Daimler Trucks & Buses we are clearly committed to the goals of the Paris ClimateProtection Agreement and thus to the decarbonization of our industry. Still, there are very specific challenges in the commercial vehicle sector, such as service life and payload availability. All other plants will follow.
Such an approach can indicate policy directions consistent with fostering the conditions that comprehensive analyses imply are necessary for climateprotection. In fact, this analytic approach does allow for an increasing and potentially extensive use of biofuels for long-term climate mitigation. as reviewed in IPCC 2011).Broadly
