Anti-Idling Project Saves Money and Energy: Retrofit for Use in Company Fleet Vehicles - Ram Shrivastava, President of Larsen Engineers, explains his company's NYSERDA grant with Wayne County

the CEO Hour, April 22nd 2011. Ram Shrivastava, CEO of Larsen Engineers joins Bruce and Diana to talk about the Transportation Energy Conservation Demo Project in Wayne County.

We all know that cars use a lot of gas, and emissions coming from the tail pipe aren't good for the environment. But, can you imagine how much damage police cars do? Not to mention public works vehicles that spend hours sitting on a job site. Larsen Engineers is helping some towns in Wayne County cut down the idling of their vehicles. Just this week, NYSERDA agreed to invest $17,000 in the Larsen Engineers project.  Estimates are that police cars spend up to 8 hours a day just idling. The solution from Larsen Engineers is expected to save about $648 a month in gas for just one car. http://www.larsen-engineers.com
