o Operate 150+ mixed fleet, major focus on constructiono 50%+ fleet utilizing Dual Fuel technology
o Introduced Dual Fuel technology to UK in 1998/99o Hardstaff fleet has completed 62+ million miles to prove the
technology and develop reliabilityo Typical substitution between 50 – 60%o Typical CO2 savings 14 – 18%
Hardstaff OIGI® (Oil-Ignition Gas-Injection) Dual Fuel Hardstaff OIGI® (Oil-Ignition Gas-Injection) Dual Fuel Vehicle TechnologyVehicle Technology
Electronic system that reduces the amount of diesel injected into a cylinder, replacing the fuel with natural gas or bio methane, without affecting power and characteristics of the original diesel engine.
o OIGI® Dual Fuel is a patented combustion technology that simultaneously burns two fuels - natural gas or biomethane and diesel.
o Sequential gas injection, metered on a cylinder by cylinder basis.
o Diesel is required as the ignition source.
o The engine will use 100% diesel at idle; gas injection and diesel reduction commences when engine speed increases from idle.
The OIGI system uses cylinder by cylinder gas substitution strategy
oNo change to original engine power or torque
oSeamless transition between Diesel and Dual Fuel modesoImproves Driver acceptanceoNo impact of application of vehicle
oImproved fleet integration
oProven reliable system is accepted by a number of OEM’soSeamless warranty and service provision
oNo added risk for the operator / owner
oReliable and non-invasive technology platformoAcceptable to fleet managers and technicians
oEase of acceptance by operators, technicians and fleet management enables wider fleet adoption
oHighest possible rates of gas substitutionoMaximizes reductions in diesel consumption
oMaximizes financial and environmental benefits
Reduced Legislated EmissionsoCleaner tail pipe emissions is a business differentiator
oDrives new business, win contracts with environmentally conscious clients
oInherent reductions in Particulate Matter (PM)oReduces balance point performance of DPF technologies
oReduces associated service costs
oPotential exemption from Low Emission/Congestion area restrictions
oMay remove the need to install exhaust after treatment
Reduced CO2 Emissions and ability to operate using BiomethaneoCarbon footprint – a significant business driver within major corporate and
governmental customersoOpens doors to new business and meets requirements of existing customers
Dual Fuel Substitution Vs CO2 Reduction
Reduced CO2 Out Put In Dual Fuel Mode
o As substitution rates increase CO2 reductions increases
o With average substitution rates of 55%-65% CO2 output will be reduced by 15% to 18%
o 18% to 22% CO2 reductions In regional haul and over the road applications

oGame changing effect on overall fleet running costsoUse savings for strategic business development initiatives
oLong term business security in a changingeconomic climate
Combination of Dual Fuel concept and non invasive installationoEasily converted back to conventional diesel
oMore flexible at point of vehicle resaleoNo accelerated depreciation of base asset necessary
oAround 50% Dual Fuel components recycled to second vehicleoEnables Flexible depreciation options
oSpreading depreciation may further enhance business case
Capable of higher power ratings than dedicated gas
oSingle Gas strategy across whole mixed fleetoDevelops expertise and best practice
Up to 20% greater energy efficiency than dedicated gas
oReduces overall consumption of fueloBigger CO2 savings preferable to larger corporations CSR policies
Can run on as dedicated diesel
oMore flexible operation in areas of low re-fuelling infrastructure or unexpected traffic conditions
oNo vehicle recovery costs if gas supply exhausted
