Why Retrofit?
Reasons to retrofit an in-use diesel vehicle with a CARB-Verified system
For almost two decades, DPF systems have been successfully used to retrofit in-use diesels powering tens of thousands of in-use on-road vehicles such as transit buses, school buses, refuse trucks, delivery trucks, intermodal trucks, utility trucks, municipal vehicles, recycling trucks, shuttle buses and more. Retrofit systems are a mature robust technology to achieve immediate and effective emissions reduction on in-use diesel-powered vehicles and equipment.
ESW Group has the largest portfolio of CARB-verified retrofit systems which cover almost every application. Although diesel engines produced in 2007 and thereafter are equipped with OEM emission control systems, retrofit still is a cost-effective way to continue to reduce emissions from older vehicles that are not easily replaced or are of limited use and replacement is not cost effective (for your post-2007 engines, Skyline Emissions is your best choice).

CARB compliance
-
Current rules in California cover on-road model years up to 2007. As of January 1, 2023, California’s DMV will no longer register on-road trucks and buses that do not have a complete NOx and PM aftertreatment system. In NOx exempt areas or certain agricultural applications PM-only retrofits are still a path to compliance.

State of Oregon Incentives
-
Oregon's Clean Vehicles programs offer funding incentives for installation of diesel retrofit equipment on heavy duty trucks and buses.

-
Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEPs)
-
If your company has been found to have violated federal air quality regulations, one of the ways to make up for the excess emissions caused by your company is through a Supplemental Environmental Project (SEP) with the U.S. EPA.

Diesel retrofits can be an effective way to create new emissions reduction: they are a proven technology, use traceable processes in their implementation, and are scalable.
