| Caterpillar Demonstrates 2007 On-Highway Engine Caterpillar Inc. committed to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that it will be ready to provide customers with on-highway truck engines that will meet the EPA's stringent 2007 emissions standards. "Two years ago this week, I was honored to be in Washington where we demonstrated for the EPA a prototype engine that met the 2007 standard, " said Doug Oberhelman, Caterpillar group president with responsibility for the company's engine business. "The C13 engine we demonstrated today is like the production engines our customers will use starting in 2007 as they help deliver the products, goods and supplies that are a vital part of everyday life in America." The Caterpillar truck engine demonstrated for the EPA uses ultra low sulfur diesel fuel, a key component for all on-highway truck engine manufacturers to meet the 2007 emissions standards. Caterpillar has invested more than $1 billion in clean-diesel technology in recent years. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
