Annual meeting that took place in the facilities

the Group made the formal presentation of the
book. To the event attended Oscar Massei, Sustainable
Development and Environmental Policies Secretary

Member of the Climate Change Intergovernmental
Panel; Julio Garcia Velasco, Techint's Director
of Environment and Technology, and current President
of INTI (National Institute of Industrial Technology);

Carris
Company Proves Electric Bus (04-Dic-2000)
Last September, the Carris Porto-Alegre Company
finished the tests of an electric bus motor
engine. The bus possesses a hybrid characteristic,
developed in Brazil, that allows the transformation
of any fuel (diesel, alcohol, and natural gas)
to electric power. The company will opt for
the use of natural gas. With innovative technology,
this motor has a contamination index below the
one allowed by Brazilian norms, and almost 60
percent lower than buses with conventional engines.
The electric motor has a saving fuel capacity
of 40 percent, a smaller noise level, bigger
half speed, and lower installation cost. The
motor has been proven several times. Therefore,
Carris decided to use this electric bus in the
city of Porto Alegre, state capital of Rio Grande
do Sul. As a company that aims to reduce to
the minimum its polluting gas emissions, Carris
plans to substitute, in seven or eight years,
all its vehicle fleet that currently functions
with natural gas.
