Tula Reveals Technology to Reduce CO2 by 11% in Mild Hybrid Diesel Vehicles
28.6.2021 11:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Tula Technology, Inc., a leader in propulsion efficiency, has released the findings of a recent simulation study to evaluate the efficacy of its newest technology. The study validated that Tula’s Dynamic Skip Fire (DSF) developed for mild hybrid diesel vehicles reduced CO2 emissions in a 2.3 liter 4-cylinder 48-volt light commercial vehicle in challenging real-world conditions. When Tula’s software strategies were implemented, an additional 11% of CO2 was eliminated compared to industry-leading hybrid powertrains. The CO2 reduction can be achieved at a cost of only €200 ($235 USD) per vehicle.
For manufacturers of light duty commercial vehicles, this technology offers a compelling and cost-effective solution to achieve challenging Euro 7 emission standards expected to go into effect by 2026 for all new vehicles in Europe.
“We created a synergistic technology by combining mild hybrid powertrain controls with our diesel Dynamic Skip Fire, which has proven to be very effective at reducing NOX (nitrogen oxides) and CO2 (carbon dioxide) emissions in heavy duty trucks,” said R. Scott Bailey, president and CEO of Tula Technologies. “We call it electrified diesel Dynamic Skip Fire, or edDSF, and it will help manufacturers of light commercial vehicles meet challenging NOX standards in a cost-effective manner. Equally significant, our product performs even better in tougher real-world conditions than under test cycles.”
FEV, an international engineering partner to the auto industry, joined forces with Tula to develop this study. Tula will present the results at the virtual Diesel Powertrains 3.0 Conference (https://fev-live.com/diesel/conference-program/) Wednesday, June 30, at 10:35 Paris (CEST) / 16:35 Beijing.
The findings show that electrified diesel Dynamic Skip Fire (edDSF) can significantly reduce CO2 output through the synergies created by pairing a hybrid system with DSF while also providing a means to achieve upcoming low-NOX targets aimed at decreasing the pollution created by internal combustion engines. Fuel savings are an additional benefit of edDSF compared to other emissions management technologies that typically require burning additional fuel to produce the heat required to decrease tailpipe emissions. The economics of edDSF are compelling—over a six-month period, an urban delivery vehicle equipped with edDSF will save enough in fuel expenses to recoup the costs associated with Tula’s technology.
Bailey concluded, “We are excited to present our findings at this global conference. With edDSF, we are offering a leading-edge solution to help meet the tight deadline the EU has set to reduce emissions, and for vehicle powertrain development, 2026 is just around the corner. edDSF is one of the many patented technologies in Tula’s portfolio that help improve the environment by increasing the efficiency of engines and motors while reducing harmful emissions. I am very proud of our outstanding engineering team for continuing to develop new applications for our state-of-the art control technologies.”

IDDI Reveals New Brand & Celebrates 35 Years of Clinical Data Science Excellence29.1.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
IDDI, a global clinical data science partner with more than 35 years of proven quality, today announced the launch of its refreshed brand. The new brand highlights the company’s continued focus on patients and commitment to innovation while honoring its legacy of scientific rigor. The launch coincides with IDDI’s 35-year anniversary and will debut publicly at the SCOPE Summit on Feb. 2, 2026. Biomedical research is shifting toward more complex trials and advanced analytics. But, as one survey revealed, only 46% of life science leaders are fully confident their organization’s data are consistently available and accurate. IDDI’s new brand reinforces that their services are the solution, explaining how they deliver high-quality data and mitigate risk from design to registration and beyond. “Reaching 35 years is an important milestone, not only because of our longevity, but because of the impact we’ve had,” said Marc Buyse, ScD, founder and CEO of IDDI. “Our new brand reflects the heart of
NIQ Launches Breakthrough Framework That Exposes Billions Lost to the Say–Do Gap29.1.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
NielsenIQ (NYSE: NIQ) today announced the launch of its Say–Do Gap Measurement Framework, an innovative behavioral metric set to transform how brands and retailers understand modern consumers and navigate a pressing challenge: consumers who say one thing but buy another. With economic uncertainty, shifting priorities, and increasingly value‑driven decision-making changing consumer habits, this growing disconnect has cost the industry more than 13 billion unit sales over the past five years—losses many companies can no longer afford to overlook. By unifying deep attitudinal insights with verified purchase data across 25+ global markets, the Say–Do Framework bridges this gap and exposes where brands are losing momentum, where unmet demand is hiding, and where opportunity is silently compounding. Brands and retailers can now quantify the gap between what consumers believe and what they buy, and market or create products that deliver value with the correct consumer, maximize price retentio
