DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3l6j7d/strategic_analysis) has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report "Strategic Analysis of the Medium to Heavy-duty Hybrid and Electric Commercial Vehicle Market in North and South America: Electrifying Growth Opportunities Necessitate Hybrid Strategies as Market Pull Dictates Growth" to their offering.
This research service provides key trends affecting the hybrid and electric medium-duty and heavy-duty commercial vehicle market in North and South America, focusing on the United States and Brazil. This service analyzes urbanization trend, fuel price volatility, regulatory and legislative benefits for adopting green technologies, competitive dynamics, and payback analysis. Furthermore, it provides revenue opportunities for market participants in non-energy storage hybrid and electric components. Vertical integration activities, key conclusions, and recommendations are considered for the mid to long terms.
Global Short-term Technology Trends: Focus is Still Heavily Centered Around Energy Storage Systems; Disparate Hybrid Technologies Keep the Global Industry Divided.
- Effective coordination between the primary power source (IC engine) and the assistant power source (an electric or hydraulic motor) enables greater fuel efficiency based on optimization of power management by using advanced control strategies and electronics.
- Battery technology development is emerging as a key goal for existing and potential energy systems suppliers. Lowering lifecycle cost by lengthening the battery replacement cycle is becoming a key requirement of truck OEMs.
- Scalability of hybrid powertrain systems is emerging as a need in the original equipment (OE) market as the number of platforms and vehicle models featuring hybrid powertrain systems rapidly increases.
- Lengthening the distance per charge and increasing top speeds are emerging as two main goals for hybrid and electric commercial vehicle development, especially for electric vehicles.
- Series hybrids are expected to lose prominence because parallel hybrids resonate better with local OEMs in China. CSR Times and Liaoning SG are focusing on research in parallel-series hybrids.
