Maryland Dept of Public Safety and Correctional Services Case Study
The Maryland Police and Correctional Training Commissions' Driver Training Facility evaluated the effect Energy Xtreme's Idle Reduction Alternative Power Source had on gasoline consumption during emergency vehicle operations training. A Ford CV Police Interceptor was outfitted with most of the standard type police equipment, including on-board video camera and emergency lighting, was also equipped with the Energy Xtreme Alternative Power Source. A second Ford CV Police Interceptor was outfitted with identical law enforcement equipment, but without Energy Xtreme's Alternative Power Source, was used during this evaluation for comparison.
