Episode 309: The heavy-duty industry is evolving, and mandates are steering the industry towards more environmentally friendly solutions. In the first part of our episode, Jamie Irvine talks about mandates for reduced NOx emissions and the phasing out of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and the plan to replace them with electric vehicles (EVs). But do EVs have what it takes for those long hauls?
The trucking industry is also moving away from old-school refrigerants. We interviewed Christina Spalding from Chemours and got an update on how their latest products meet the future mandates for refrigerants in the trucking industry, even though those mandates keep getting pushed farther into the future.
