Electronics
Increase efficiency by distributing the workload
To improve efficiency, more and more manufacturers are developing hybrid systems which incorporate the use of batteries and capacitors to work in tandem with the vehicle's engine.
Able to fit into a Group 31 battery package, the Engine Start Module from Maxwell Technologies contains several ultracapacitors to provide the boost of energy necessary to start an engine.
Paints, Coatings, Decals
Paint in a shade of green
Paints and coatings manufacturers are continuing to lower VOCs as well as make other environmentally friendly improvements to their products.
The TRU TEMP black oxide finish provides an alternative to painting that is often preferable for component manufacturers because the finish does not cause dimensional changes to the component that could inhibit it's functionality as paint would.

Clean Diesel Emissions and Equipment Update: Tier 4 Standards, Update and Future Considerations
Diesel Technology Forum
The advances in engine combustion, fuel injection, turbocharging and engine control systems and new emissions control options using reformulated and low-sulfur diesel fuels were the right formula.
U.S. EPA's off-road diesel emissions limits are phased in using the eight horsepower groups shown across the top line of this table. Under-75-hp engines had to meet Tier 4 final limits as of the first of 2013, and all engines must comply with Tier 4 final by 2015.
