Do gas trucks reduce emissions? Your questions answered

September 25, 2019

On 19 September T&E published its paper ‘Do gas trucks reduce emissions?’ discussing air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions from diesel and gas-powered trucks.

Most of the findings were based on on-road tests commissioned by the Dutch government, performed by TNO. After the publication, different stakeholders, mainly from the gas lobby questioned our results and reacted in press releases and media outlets. In this briefing, downloadable below, T&E responds to the claims made by those stakeholders.
