The Association of Equipment Manufacturers Thursday (March 2, 2023) announced policy recommendations for future rulemakings impacting emissions or future engine technologies. The organization released a position paper entitled “Clean Air and Low Emissions through Next-Gen Nonroad Equipment.”
The paper also details the position of AEM and its members that future regulations should support a reasonable transition to cleaner equipment. AEM Vice President of Construction & Utility John Somers says, “The association and its members want to leverage our considerable experience and expertise to inform regulatory efforts happening both now and in the future.” Engine emissions regulations are among the most important and impactful requirements placed on the nonroad equipment sector, affecting everything from performance, research and development, design, safety and cost. The most recent Tier 4 update drove significant equipment changes, including modernized electronic engines and aftertreatment for many power categories.
The Position paper and its recommendations are available on the organization’s website, aem.org.
