Gemini has chosen to address the design of the Class 8 tractor/trailer as the first application of its technologies.  The reasons for this are:

  • A large, high visibility market.

  • Stringent emissions standards taking effect in 2010, requiring significantly new technology for compliance, and another reduction in emissions scheduled for 2015.

  • A quick payback on the investment for both the company’s investors and the end users of its technology.

  • A fragmented industry with many truck manufacturers and many trailer manufacturers but no single manufacturer building integrated tractor /trailer systems.

  • According to Technology Roadmap for the 21st Century Truck Program - A Government-Industry Research Partnership, by the U.S. Department of Energy, December 2000 “The line-haul tractor-trailer offers the best benefit for any technology that will improve fuel efficiency.”  Results to date, however, have shown only small, incremental improvements.  We know we can do better.

Our intellectual property is based upon the following areas of known hybridization technology: 

Aerodynamics, thermodynamics, electrolysis, hydraulics, electro-capacitance and regenerative braking. 

Our designs are based upon the premise that the dimensions of a class 8 truck will not change and that hydrocarbons will continue to be the least cost and most plentiful fuel for at least another 50 years.

Our vehicles will travel 12 to 13 miles per gallon of diesel consumed and exceed 2015 EPA restrictions.
