dynaCERT Inc. (TSX VENTURE: DYA) (OTCQB: DYFSF) (FRA: DMJ) is
pleased to report on the notable field trial results of the
Company’s new HG2 HydraGEN™ Technology as verified through the
Company’s proprietary HydraLytica™ telematics device.
The smaller HG2 on-demand hydrogen delivery
system complements the Company’s well-established HG1 models. While
the HG1 models are appropriate for larger diesel displacement
engines of 8 to 16 Litres, the newest HG2 model opens up dynaCERT’s
market for the smaller displacement diesel engines and, possibly in
the future, for gasoline engines.
School Bus Trials in Ontario,
Canada
In July 2019, the HG2 units were installed on
two Taylor-brand School Buses, a 2005 and 2015, each powered by a
6.7 Litre diesel engine, each engine from a different manufacturer.
The buses were used on school bus itineraries in Southern Ontario
and accumulated more than 2,000 kilometres (driving stop and go
along typical school bus routes) during the 2-month
proof-of-concept period. The data from the HydraLytica™ telematics
device recorded that the buses achieved an average reduction in
fuel consumption of 13.8% and 15.5%, respectively. Of significance,
the NOx levels were reduced 48% and 52%, respectively. The NOx
level was measured by a Portable Emissions Measuring System (PEMS).
The PEMS measured the exhaust at the end of the tailpipe where it
most affects the immediate air environment at the ground level near
where school children might be exposed to NOx, a dangerous, deadly
gas emitted by diesel engines.
Approximately 18,000 School Buses travel 2
million kilometres in Ontario, every school day.
According to a 2014 National Association for
Pupil Transportation report, School Bus carriers operate the
largest mass transportation fleet in the USA. Each day, 480,000
yellow school buses travel the roads in the USA. This is a very
significant market for dynaCERT when compared to the 140,000 total
transit vehicles, 96,000 of which are buses; the motor coach
industry, with 35,000 buses; commercial airlines with 7,400
airplanes; and rail with 1,200 passenger railcars.
Passenger Vehicle – Diesel
Another dynaCERT HG2 unit was installed in June
2019 on a 2013 luxury passenger SUV vehicle with a 3.0 Litre diesel
engine as is typical for such vehicles. The vehicle had an odometer
reading of 225,000 kilometres (140,000 miles) and a baseline fuel
consumption of 8.1 Litres per 100 kilometres (29 mpg) without
dynaCERT’s HydraGEN™ Technology. The fuel consumption, in the trial
period of July and August 2019, was reduced when used with
dynaCERT’s HydraGEN™ Technology to an average of 7.1 Litres per 100
(33.2mpg) over the 8-week period. The lowest fuel consumption with
the HydraGEN™ Technology recorded was 6.3 Litres per 100 kilometres
(37.4mpg) after the break-in period.
In North America there were approximately 8.1
million diesel powered passenger vehicles on the road in 2015.
Passenger Vehicle – Gasoline
Engines
In September 2019, the HG2 unit was installed on
a 2012 passenger 4-door sedan with a 3.5 Litre gasoline engine. The
vehicle lifetime baseline fuel consumption of 12.3 Litres per
hundred kilometres (L/100 km) (19.1 mpg) over a distance of
approximately 2200 kilometres (1350 miles). The fuel consumption
was reduced 11% to an average of 11.1 Litres per hundred kilometres
(L/100 km) (or 21.2 mpg).
In 2017, in North America there were
approximately 275 million gasoline powered passenger vehicles on
the road.
Corporate Statement
Robert Maier, COO and Chief Engineer for
dynaCERT stated: “The opportunity for HydraGEN™ Technology
units to be installed on all types of engines opens the market
potential for dynaCERT to be a significant world-wide contributor
to the reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG’s). When our
HydraGEN™ units include our HydraLytica™ telematics for Carbon
Credit reporting, we can truly provide the transportation industry
with a recurring revenue generating device that helps save the
planet.”
About the HG2
The HG2 unit is appropriate for those smaller
displacement engines used in Buses, Refrigerated Trailers and
Containers, Mobile Construction Equipment, Small Generators and
Smaller Trucks commonly found outside of North America, such as in
European countries and in India. This market size represents
approximately 20 million applications in North America and similar
sized market opportunities in each of the European and Asian
markets.
