... 2In accordance with the original concept developed by the ACRP panel for conducting the research, the approach for completing the assignment followed a two-phase, nine-task working plan described in the following paragraphs and illustrated in Figure 2-1. Task 1 [Define and identify powered GSE types and how the equipment is used at a variety of airports ranging from non-hub to large hub, both in warm and cold climates, taking into consideration airport equipment requirements (e.g., fuel delivery systems and cargo)
From page 3...
... research approach 3 With the principal aim of comparing GSE powered with conventional (i.e., diesel and gasoline) fuels to those powered with alternative fuels (i.e., ethanol, biodiesel, natural gas, propane, methanol, hydrogen and electricity)
