eNOW Energy Systems Prove Their Worth At Mesilla Valley Transportation
ENOW ENERGY SYSTEMS PROVE THEIR WORTH AT MESILLA VALLEY TRANSPORTATION Navistar’s SuperTruck program demonstration vehicle, CatalIST, recently exceeded the improvement goals set by the Department of Energy for the SuperTruck program. CatalIST achieved a freight efficiency improvement of 104% compared to the DOE’s control vehicle, sipping diesel at 13 MPG. The vehicle also demonstrated 50.5% Brake Thermal Effi ciency (BTE) with plans for Navistar to increase that to 55% BTE. As part of its efforts to create the ultimate fuel-efficient truck, Navistar tested eNow’s solar energy system, a leader in renewable energy solutions for the commercial trucking, RV and marine industries, on its SuperTruck at Navistar Proving Grounds. Located in New Carlisle, Indiana, Navistar Proving Grounds is
