Imagine a greener planet by just reducing the fuel used in the nearly 30,000 automated side loader refuse truck on the roads across the U.S. This action alone would reduce CO2 emissions by 2.9 Billion pounds. If RunWise replaced 50% of current automated side loader refuse vehicles, it would save up to 65 Million gallons of diesel fuel. This same amount: would save 1.5 Billions pounds of CO2 from being emitted, would fuel 34,283 school buses for a year. Using hydraulics braking on collection routes reduces brake dust normally generated by shoes and drums-another environmental advantage.
