昆騰燃料系統(tǒng)技術(shù)全球公司,天然氣存儲(chǔ)系統(tǒng),集成和車輛系統(tǒng)技術(shù)的開發(fā)和生產(chǎn)商,已被通知的加州能源委員會(huì)的(CEC)公共權(quán)益能源研究計(jì)劃,昆騰的建議響應(yīng)計(jì)劃?rùn)C(jī)會(huì)通知通過題為“ 先進(jìn)的天然氣發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)的研究與發(fā)展3類7類應(yīng)用已被推薦為100萬美元的補(bǔ)助金。
南加州天然氣還承諾額外的資金,以幫助該項(xiàng)目符合其技術(shù)目標(biāo)。
贈(zèng)款將用于資助開發(fā)和驗(yàn)證一種低成本,多端口燃油注入天然氣燃料系統(tǒng)和發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)與先進(jìn)的控制系統(tǒng),專為3類7類的應(yīng)用,如公交車,中型卡車車隊(duì),港口貨運(yùn)處理車輛。昆騰公司在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目中的合作伙伴是電源解決方案國(guó)際公司(PSI),一個(gè)清潔技術(shù)的發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)制造商,技術(shù)和里卡多戰(zhàn)略咨詢,和加州大學(xué)河濱。該項(xiàng)目將利用PSI的新的8.8升發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)為基礎(chǔ)引擎,針對(duì)一個(gè)20%的改善燃油經(jīng)濟(jì)性和一個(gè)16%的改善功率密度的天然氣版本,以滿足一個(gè)迫切的市場(chǎng)需要先進(jìn)的天然氣選項(xiàng)中型的應(yīng)用程序。
Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc., developer and producer of natural gas storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies, has been notified by the California Energy Commission’s (CEC) Public Interest Energy Research Program that Quantum’s proposal in response to the Program Opportunity Notice entitled Advanced Natural Gas Engine Research and Development for Class 3 through Class 7 Applicationshas been recommended for a $1 million grant award.
Southern California Gas has also committed additional funding to help the project meet its technical goals.
The grant will fund the development and validation of a low-cost, multi-port fuel-injected natural-gas fuel system and engine with advanced controls, designed for Class 3 to Class 7 fleet applications such as buses, medium-duty trucks, and port freight-handling vehicles. Quantum’s partners in this project are Power Solutions International, Inc. (PSI), a cleantech engine manufacturer, technology and strategy consultancy Ricardo, and the University of California, Riverside. The project will utilize PSI’s new 8.8-liter engine for the base engine, targeting a 20% improvement in fuel economy and a 16% improvement in power density for the natural gas version to meet an urgent market need for advanced natural gas options for medium duty applications.
