FY 1999 report on the investigational study of the actual state of the utilization of clean energy vehicles for the transport business use; 1999 nendo chosa hokokusho. Unso jigyo yo clean energy jidosha no shiyo jittai ni kakawaru chosa kenkyu

Abstract

For the purpose of promoting the utilization of clean energy vehicles (CEV), survey was made on the assessment of the pollution by the CEVs introduced by now, subjects on the utilization, etc. As to the transport business use CEV running in the market, CNG vehicle is mostly used, and therefore, the gas emitted from them was tested. As a result, it was found out that CNG vehicle emits fewer NOx, PM and soot/smoke than diesel cars and contributes to improving the air pollution in large cities. However, it emits more CO2 than diesel car, and accordingly, it is necessary to reduce the fuel consumption. The practicality in the limited running distance is almost the same as that of diesel car, but it is desirable to improve startability, acceleration and gradability. Further, the occurrence of any troubles was pointed out in a third of the total numbers of CEV vehicle. Improvement in reliability is a must. CEV is higher in car cost than diesel car, and for the spread/promotion, it is necessary to prepare for assistance such as subsidy. Moreover, there are many requests for improvement in number, business hours, supply capacity, etc. of fuel supply station. (NEDO)
