4 BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES Vehicle Service Parts Manufacture New Technology Emissions Compliance Vehicle Inspection Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 4

5 VEHICLE SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS (OBDII): tests vehicles equipped with OBD technology. OBD II checks for engine performance and can detect problems with the emissions control system before the driver is aware of them. TWO-SPEED IDLE TEST: An air sampling probe, placed in the tailpipe, collects information on the vehicle s emission of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. The single- or 2-speed idle test is part of a basic emissions inspection program and is conducted with a 4-gas analyzer. ACCELERATION SIMULATION MODE (ASM): ASM testing requires a five-gas analyzer and dynamometer. This procedure more accurately measures vehicle emissions by simulating actual driving conditions (in other words, while the car is under load). The test measures levels of hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. FUEL FILLER CAP PRESSURE: An adapter is placed and then pressurized on the vehicle s fuel filler cap. The test procedure measures leak flow rate (EVAP) of fuel vapour from the vehicle s fuel tank. Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 5

9 VEHICLE SERVICE EMISSIONS TESTING EQUIPMENT Fuel evaporation test equipment Emissions test cell set-up Light duty vehicle Dynamometer Exhaust probe Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 9

10 PARTS MANUFACTURE OPPORTUNITIES THREE WAY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS: Vehicles that fail emissions inspection tests due to failed catalytic converters will need to have them replaced. Due to the high volume of used vehicles imported to Kenya, there could be a manufacturing opportunity for replacement catalytic converters to be exploited. DIESEL OXIDATION CATALYSTS: Now that the sulphur in our diesel has been reduced to 500ppm, the use of diesel oxidation catalysts retrofitted to all non-compliant diesel vehicle exhaust systems would substantially reduce emissions and if manufactured locally would create jobs. DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTERS: We expect when our refinery (KPRL) upgrades, the locally refined diesel available will be50ppm at which point our diesel vehicles could be retrofitted with particulate filters to further reduce emissions. Local manufacture of particulate filters for all our diesel vehicles would be a viable opportunity for exploitation. Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 10

12 PARTS MANUFACTURE COMBINATION CATALYST Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 12

13 NEW TECHNOLOGY OPPORTUNITIES EXHAUST GAS ANALYSIS: Use of an exhaust gas analyser will allow vehicle mechanics to narrow down the potential cause of driveability and emissions concerns and focus their troubleshooting tests in areas most likely to be causing concern while save diagnostic time. EFFECTIVE VEHICLE SERVICING: In addition to helping mechanics focus their troubleshooting, an exhaust gas analyzer also gives them the ability to measure the effectiveness of repairs by comparing before and after exhaust readings providing objective analysis for customers. REMOTE DATA CAPTURE: System applications that allow for the remote updating of a centralized database on vehicles that pass emissions tests at decentralized independent certified test centers will ease the burden and increase transparency on tracking gross emitters. TRAINING ON NEW TECHNOLOGIES: New curriculums on emissions testing and effective repairs need to be introduced in our colleges and tertiary institutions and accommodate informal sector mechanics. Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 13

14 NEW TECHNOLOGY EXHAUST EMISSIONS CONTROL Shop grade analysers are capable of measuring from as few as two exhaust gasses, HC and CO, to as many as five; HC, CO, CO2, O2 and NOx. All five of these gasses, especially O2 and CO2, are excellent troubleshooting tools Use of a four or five Gas Exhaust Analyser can be helpful in troubleshooting both emissions and driveability concerns To completely burn all the fuel, the air to fuel ratio must be set at 14.7:1 known as the Stoichiometric Ratio Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 14

17 EMISSIONS REDUCTION OPPORTUNITIES ECO DRIVING: Increased public awareness and training in Ecodriving can sustainably reduce emissions and save 5% to 15% of fuel consumption with beneficial effects for the vehicle owner and national economy. Kenya s oil import bill soared almost 30% by US$608 million to US$2.7 billion in the 12 months to November Oil is the single biggest import item (22.5%) of our US$12 billion import bill. Oil prices have soared from US$70 per barrel in 2010 to above US$120. MASS TRANSIT SYSTEMS: Accelerated introduction of sustainable mass transit systems such as Light Rail and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), ideally 160 passenger articulated buses, on exclusive lanes along main feeder artery routes to the city centre will result in substantial reduction in emissions per commuter with opportunities for shareholder investors. SATELLITE TRANSIT SYSTEMS: Lower capacity 26 to 33 passenger buses feeding into the main nodes of the mass transit system from satellite towns and suburban areas will further reduced emissions in our growing suburbs and satellite towns. Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 17

18 EMISSIONS REDUCTION ECODRIVING TIPS TARGET ACTION Change gear at 2000 rpm for a diesel engine or 2400 rpm for a petrol engine Don t warm the engine even on frosty mornings Check the tyre pressure every 30 days Limit the difference between the outside and the inside temperature to 5 degrees When stopping for more than 60 seconds switch off the engine Clean Vehicle Technologies Opportunities & Benefits 18
