Impact Assessment Results from Various Countries and Methods

A compilation of case studies and impact assessment results for Ecuador, North America, Europe, Australia, Vietnam and Lao PDR.

Case-Study: Ecuador

This study analyses techniques for fuel consumption reduction in a transport fleet in the highlands of Ecuador. Five measurable and quantifiable techniques (idling, constant speed, hard breaking and acceleration events, inertia, rpm) were evaluated before and after a transport fleet driver was trained. The results show remarkable reduction for fuel consumption and for each technique analysed.
