# Heavy Duty Truck Emissions Benefit Calculator (for Drayage and Other Heavy Duty Trucks)

This calculator allows a user to input information about a particular medium-heavy or heavy-duty truck engine and estimate the emissions benefits of a proposed project funded under the $1B Goods Movement Emission Reduction Program. Included below is the methodology and directions for filling in each field necessary for emissions benefit estimation. 

## Methodology **:** Emissions from each project is the product of annual accrual (miles/year), pollutant (NOx or PM) and model year specific emission rates. (grams/mile) To estimate the benefits of the proposed project, the baseline emissions from the original truck(s) and the project emissions are calculated and the difference between the two is the benefit of that project. See example below:


## Emissions (lbs/year) = Emission Rate (g/mile)*A **nnual A** **ccrual (miles/year)*1lb/453.6 grams**



## Directions:

**% CA Operation proposed** Prop1B now offers the option to allow projects that operate 90% of their annual miles in California with new trucks funded with Prop 1B grants. This is where users opt for this choice if selected by the applicant. The options are either 100% or 90%.

**NOx Cert Level** For the 08-09 Grants, Prop1B requires applicants to only select one of three NOx CERT level engines for funding for new or repowered trucks. The three levels are 1.2, 0.5 and 0.2 gNOx/bhp-hr.

**Example Project**

A first project in 2012 is to replace a non-drayage, 1972 Class 8 truck (50,000 CA VMT) which has no initial filters. The replacement is a Class 8 truck with a 1.2 NOx diesel engine with 100% proposed operation in California. The requested funding amount is $40,000 with a project life of 5 years. In 2011, a Local Agency C proposes to retrofit and replace trucks. The Table below provides inputs required to perform emission reductions.

A second project in 2012 is a 2 for 1 project. The first truck is a non-drayage, 1972 Class 7 truck (50,000 CA VMT) which has no initial filters. The second truck is a 1972 class 7, non-drayage truck (50, 000 CA VMT) with a level 2 PM filter already installed. The replacement is a class 7 truck with a 0.2 NOx diesel engine with 90% proposed operation in California. The requested funding amount is $40,000 with a project life of 5 years. A third project in 2012 is a level 3 PM Retrofit project. The truck is non-drayage, 1994 Class 7 truck (50,000 CA VMT) which already has a Level 1 PM filter installed in it. The retrofit is with a level 3 PM filter with $5,000 and a project life of 2 years. A final project in 2012 is a 3-W ay Truck project. The first truck is a drayage, 1998 Class 8 truck (50,000 CA VMT) which has a level 3 PM filter. The second truck is a 1972 class8, non-drayage truck (5,000 CA VMT) with no filters installed. The replacement is a class 8 truck with a 0.2 NOx diesel hybrid engine with 90% proposed operation in California. The requested funding amount is $60,000 for the new truck with a project life of 5 years.Input Data
