Three OEMs have announced new fuel efficient products.
Scania has announced an 8% fuel consumption improvement with Super 13 liters engines and promises 50% maintenance stops reduction. Volvo has announced a new Euro VI line with Volvo Engine produced in Brazil, replacing MWM on the VM platform. VW fuel consumption improvement is in the 5% range and the company reports 4,000 units Euro VI sold in 2022 already.
After the first sale of NG trucks at Fenatran in October 2019, Scania has sold 22 more, including 18 to Pepsico. The forecast of 100 NG Trucks to be sold this year has been reduced because of the pandemic effect.

Scania displayed CNG trucks and biogas production systems at its booth as a clear bet on this technology growing against Diesel in Brazil. At FENATRAN, the 22nd International Road Cargo Transport Trade Show, it sold its first regular production R 410 fueled by CNG to RN Logistics. The truck will operate at the São Paulo – Rio de Janeiro route.
This forecast appeared in the September 2019 issue of Diesel Progress magazine.
SUMMARY. The underlying weak conditions in the global economic picture could put
pressure on the North American power generation industry for the remainder of
2019 and through most of 2020. We forecast little or no growth for the industry
through 2020.

SUMMARY. The underlying weak conditions in the global economic picture could put
pressure on the North American power generation industry for the remainder of
2019 and through most of 2020. We forecast little or no growth for the industry
through 2020.
Even though the power
generation production market was up slightly (0.9% in 2018-2019), we see it declining
about 1% over the next year.
For those of you a few
years removed from your high school U.S. History courses, the original Gilded
Age was a period covering the 1870s-1890s that was marked by astonishing
economic growth. Driven by the expansion of industrialization in the North and
West, facilitated by growing railroad networks, real wages grew an enviable
60%.
But Mark Twain dubbed
this period the “Gilded Age” rather than the “Golden Age,” because it was also
marked by extreme poverty, and he represented it with gilded, decaying apple.
The shiny outward appearance of growth was masking a rotten core of massive
inequality.
In this episode of the PSR PowerTALK Podcast Chris Fisher, Power Systems’ Senior Commercial Vehicle Analyst, discusses the Q4 2020 global production facts and related forecasts for medium and heavy trucks.

Welcome to PowerTALK Truck podcast February 2021. Produced by Power Systems Research, the leading supplier of global production data and forecasts to the engine power products and Components industries. Here’s today’s host, Emiliano Marzoli, Manager of Power Systems Research, European Operations.
The word “hybrid” in the power generation universe has generally been understood to mean a fossil-fuel engine supplemented by another power source, usually a renewable.
Then, the word grew to include vehicles and equipment that ran primarily on battery power but could be switched to a smaller engine that would recharge the battery while it ran.
Now, we are entering a time when “hybrid” includes drive systems that are primarily renewable-based and supplemented by an additional renewable system.
In this sphere, alternative power has primarily meant batteries and hydrogen fuel cells; one of the major impediments to wide adoption has always been range.
What changes do you see in the PSR Truck Production Index in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter of 2020?
Overall, we are seeing stronger momentum for commercial truck orders and sales which bode well for production in Q1 2021.
Supply chain issues will impact short term production as companies are still having difficulty with staffing numbers and various virus protocols that disrupt production. These problems are expected to continue throughout at least the first half of the year.
St. Paul,
MN (Oct. 16, 2019)— The Power
Systems Research Truck Production Index (PSR-TPI) dropped
from 128 to 1116, or 9.4%, for the three-month period ended Sept. 30, 2019,
from Q2 2019. The year-over-year (Q3 2018 to Q3 2019) loss for the PSR-TPI was,
120 to 116, or 3.3%.
