Why AdBlue dispensing will be commonplace on the forecourt
Ignacio Garcia-Lorenana, SCR Technical Lead in Opel / Vauxhall
Stefan Kunter, CEO ELAFLEX HIBY Group
By the time APEA Live kicks off, new emissions regulations (Euro 6) will require drastically reduced NOx limits. Come September 2017, limits will be reduced further. This means more and more motorists will require AdBlue re-fill facilities, and the UK forecourt must be ready! Don’t miss this fascinating account of the incoming changes and what this means for your business planning.
