The World Bank (WB) initiated a pilot
project - dubbed "Guangzhou Green Trucks Pilot
Project" in support of Guangzhou's efforts to
improve air quality in preparation for the 2010 Asian Games.
The goal of this project was to develop a proof of concept
for a truck program in Guangdong Province and China that
aims to: Enhance the fuel economy of the truck fleet, reduce
black carbon and other air pollutants from trucks and
consequently obtain GHG emission savings. The following
strategies were applied during the technology pilot on HDTs:
Cab roof fairing, which is an integrated air deflector
mounted on the top of the cab and reduces the gap between
the tractor and the trailer. Fairings of the brand DongGuan
CAIJI were used in the pilot. Nose cone, which is installed
on the front of the trailer and reduces air turbulence. Nose
cones were purchased from a Guangdong-based supplier,
DongGuan CAIJI. Skirts, which are panels that hang down from
the bottom of a trailer to enclose the open space between
the rear wheels o the tractor and the rear wheels of the
trailer. Skirts reduce the amount of wind underneath the
trailer and, according to the manufacturers, can improve
fuel economy by up to 5 percent. Skirts were made to size in
the US by FreightWing Inc, and shipped to China. |
