Technology to Control Vehicle Emissions in real time

EarthSense Systems is helping develop a system to automatically activate zeroemission running of hybrid vehicles along the most heavily polluted city streets. Using its state-of-the-art Zephyr air quality monitoring sensor, EarthSense will measure local air quality levels, in real time, and upload them to a specially developed hybrid vehicle interface, triggering on-demand zero-emission running instructions in vehicles when pollution levels are high enough.

Known as Project ACCRA and led by Cenex, the UK’s first Centre of Excellence for low carbon technology, the project is being undertaken in partnership with Leeds City Council.
