American Power Group Receives 28 IUL EPA Certs for Volvo/Mack Engines
On Tuesday, American Power Group (APG) announced that it has received notification from the U.S. EPA that its recent Clean Alternative Fuel Vehicle and Engine Conversion Submission has been approved for the following Intermediate Useful Life (IUL) engines:
Volvo/Mack
D12, D13, E7, MP8
11.9L to 12.8L
2004 to 2012
The submission used APG’s V5000 Dual Fuel Turbocharged Natural Gas technology, which is required to meet specific design, componentry and emission compliance criteria per the EPA Final Rule 40CFR Parts 85 and 86. The 28 IUL approvals include APG’s first dual fuel conversion approval of the Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) engine technology, which meets or exceeds EPA’s 2010 OEM certified engine emission criteria. These IUL approvals are in addition to APG’s 456 EPA approvals already received for OUL engines covering six OEM engine platforms for model years from 2009 to the mid 1990’s. “The IUL addressable market is strategically important because it allows APG access to the medium to large fleet owners who operate 300+ vehicles and keep their trucks 4–5 years,” said Lyle Jensen, American Power Group Corporation’s President and CEO.
