Key benefits of clean diesel retrofitting

   Existing diesel vehicles reach latest emissions standard
    via retrofitting
       NOx is reduced in an SCR-catalyst by ammonia (NH3)
                                                                     NO + NO2 + 2 NH3
       Conventional AdBlue liquid: An indirect NH3 source that
         works well with hot engine conditions                       → 2 N2+ 3 H2O
       Our ASDS with direct gas dosing ensures low emissions even
         during slow city driving (= cold engine conditions)

   Retrofit is cost-effective
       Low investment compared to battery vehicles

       1 battery bus  retrofit of 30 existing buses

       Fast track to meet regulation and health benefits

       Upgrade to Euro VI and avoid scrapping fully functional
        Euro III/IV/V vehicles
   … and it is available now!
      NOx pollution is an urgent health crisis that needs to be
       dealt with promptly

Upgrading “old” diesel to near-zero polluting vehicle
                                                    •   Near-zero polluting diesel
   London city bus: Euro V Enviro 200              •   Better fuel economy than gasoline
                                                    •   Don’t kill the diesel engine!
   Retrofitted with ASDS and new exhaust system

   Emissions performance (London bus cycle test)
        76 mg NOx/km (< 0.1 g/kWh)
        > 99 % NOx reduction
        Ultra-low NO2
        Particle emissions below Euro VI level
