MIPS Project Challenge:
The goal of this MIPS project is to test and validate the effectiveness of Belloso’s Dual- Engine Technology System under several engine modification protocols.

Project Scope:
This MIPS project will focus on confirming prior testing results of Belloso’s technology. MIPS funding will allow the company to perform testing under rigorous U.S. EPA conditions and standards of accuracy. This will include performing baseline (non-modified) testing, modifying a vehicle with the Dual-Engine Technology, and testing the modified vehicle for the final fuel efficiency and acceleration data. Confirmation of the technology’s effectiveness will provide the basis for additional research and development required to commercialize the system.

Thanks to MIPS, Belloso Motors now has the resources to carry out testing in the United States to validate the testing done in the Philippines, which showed a 100 percent increase in fuel efficiency (determined by miles per gallon achieved before and after engine modification). We look forward to commercializing this revolutionary technology to bring jobs and economic development to the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Results: 

In early October, 2017, the functionality and validity of the gasoline measuring protocol was tested at Tawes Motors in Crisfield, Maryland. This testing positively proved the system that will be used to measure gasoline used by the vehicle during testing. Baseline testing of the test vehicle will take place by November 20, 2017.

The Dual-Engine Vehicle System developed by Belloso Motor Company provides fuel efficiency that rivals that of hybrid and electric cars. The Belloso method provides this efficiency without the cost and the environmental and physical hazards posed by the batteries used in hybrids and electric cars. Testing in the Philippines returned data showing the Dual-Engine Technology System operated at 61.22 miles per gallon versus 30 miles per gallon for the baseline test, according to the company.
