  1. Glenn Saint Commercial Director

  2. Why? • Reduction of harmful emissions • Breathable harmful to health • Atmospheric pollutants • Reduction of Greenhouse gases CO2 • Carbon footprint • Responsible for Climate Change • Fuel savings and cost reductions

  3. Reduction of “Carbon Footprint” • Carbon Dioxide CO2 • Considered a main “Greenhouse Gas” • What can be done? • Reduce the amount of fuel burnt • Change the type of fuel burnt

  4. Carbon Reduction • Turning point for vehicle drive technologies • No single answer to carbon reduction issues • Diesel electric hybrid is only one possibility • Choice of technology may be locally driven • Source of fuel • Route mileage • Terrain • Needs to have retrofitable option to be future proof

  5. What we will offer… • Optare will offer the operator a choice to match these local needs • Choice of fuel • Choice of technology • Future proof engineering allows for improvement and ongoing change • Retrofitable solutions, we need to address the whole vehicle parc

  6. Enhanced Diesel

  7. Driver’s Binnacle • All operations which directly affect safety, fuel economy and improved efficiency are monitored and fed back to the driver interface.

  8. Telematics Overview GPS Signal Diagnostics Telecom Networks Fleet Operator(s) Telematic Gateway Unit FTP Server • Data is collected by TGU • GPS data received from satellite system • Two way communication in blocks or on request • All vehicle data accessible to operators • Remote diagnostics package • Regular software updates • Tachograph download via network • Fleet management......etc

  9. Alternative Fuels

  10. Methane • Least environmental impact of all fossil fuels 26% less carbon than diesel • Can be derived from landfill waste gas or anaerobic digestion • Use in a gas engine (Spark ignition) • Actual engine performance 25% worse! So no net carbon benefit • So what do we do?

  11. Dual Fuel Gas-Diesel • Engine efficiency same as diesel • Fuel consumption as diesel • CNG Compressed Natural Gas • Roof mounted tanks • Can be provided from LCNG plant • To 80% substitution • 20% reduction in CO2 on natural gas • 50% reduction using BioMethane • Retains existing diesel engine • Can be retrofitted

  12. Dual Fuel System

  13. Solo Dual Fuel

  14. BioMethane Dual Fuel Summary • Technology partner Hardstaff Group multipoint injection system • Exclusive partner for new and retrofit buses • Optare to supply bus conversion • Hardstaff supply gas fuelling station and gas supply • Eligible for “Green Bus Grant” • First vehicle retrofit Solo Anglian bus, Hardstaff, Optare, UEA

  15. Pure Plant Oil • Pure Plant Oil (PPO) “Regenatec system” • 100% vegetable oil from Rape, Macadamia • 80% plus carbon reduction • Requires simple heating system for oil • Modest vehicle on-cost

  16. target oil temp > 60°C critical viscosity level Temperature characteristics of mineral diesel PPO typical PPO mineral diesel

  17. injector pump fuel return coolant feed out coolant feed in Biofuel system • original fuel tank now holding biofuel oil • heated fuel filter • flush valve fuel select valve • injection pump auxiliary fuel tank holds start & end of journey flush diesel in line fuel filter

  18. Pure Plant Oil Summary • Modest on cost • 80% carbon reduction • Can be locally grown or recycled fuel • Vehicles in service successfully Bracknell and Pembrokeshire • Working in partnership with Regenatec • Optare convert bus • Regenatec supply fuel • New buses and retrofit available

  19. Hybrid Drives

  20. Hybrid drives • Reduces the amount of fuel burnt • Utilises energy wasted in braking • Stores the energy • Reuses the energy to propel the vehicle • Operate the engine at its optimum condition • Savings of 20% to 30% in fuel and hence CO2 • Diesel Electric can be expensive!

  21. Hybrid Versa & Solo (Siemens) • Siemens series hybrid drive system • Super capacitor energy storage (ISE) • Mercedes OM904 Euro5 engine • Engine driven ancillaries

  22. Flywheel based Mechanical Hybrid Project • Technology strategy board, fast-track project • UK partners • Twelve month demonstration project

  23. Features and Benefits • Light weight space efficient design • Bolt on design option allows retrofit • Lowest energy conversion losses • Modest on-cost predicted

  24. Typical Mechanical Hybrid Configuration

  25. Formula 1 KERS CVT

  26. Electric Vehicles

  27. Solo EV

  28. Solo EV • Fully electric ZERO Emission • Valence Lithium Iron Magnesium Phosphate batteries • Siemens 120kW traction motors • Electrically driven accessories

  29. Solo EV Power Pack and Motor Installation

  30. Solo EV Power Pack and Motor Installation

  31. Solo EV Benefits • Zero Emissions in use • Typical well to wheel CO2 reduction > 50% On typical mix of European electricity, better on alternative energy • Eligible for the “Green Bus Grant”

  32. Summary • Optare will offer Choice • Enhanced Diesel technology for 10-15% fuel saving • Full Electric EV for zero emission and min 50% CO2 reduction • Eligible for “Green Bus Grant” • BioMethane Dual Fuel 50% CO2 reduction • Eligible for “Green Bus Grant” • Hybrid drives, Diesel electric and Mechanical bolt on • All retrofittable • All future proof
