SECAT provides funds for four types
of projects:
- Purchase of new heavy-duty vehicles equipped with
engines certified to the California Air Resources Board's optional low-NOx
emission standards. Note that CURRENTLY ALL ENGINES SO CERTIFIED USE
ALTERNATIVE FUELS, THAT IS, COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS, LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS OR
PROPANE.
- Repowering of existing heavy-duty diesel vehicles with
ARB-certified diesel or alternative-fuel engines. Note: only the cost of unique
parts, under the SECAT Program, are directly related to the installation of the
lower emission engine that, on a per part basis, cost more than $100 are
eligible for reimbursement by the SECAT program. If there is an installation
upgrade kit available, the kit cost will be included in the incentive
amount.
- Retrofit of existing heavy-duty diesel vehicles with
aftertreatment such as NOx catalysts and selective catalytic reduction systems,
for which ARB has verified the emissions reduction performance.
- Use of "cleaner" diesel fuel formulations and/or diesel
emulsion fuels for which ARB has verified the emissions reduction performance,
in place of California diesel fuel.
