Message	through the article, they mentioned this as the area where it's most effective... "When used on diesel engine, an e-turbo can contribute to a 20% reduction in NOx emissions. This will be particularly important for heavy duty applications that currently rely on diesel. While there are many efforts to electrify the engines in these larger vehicles, the bulk of batteries still poses a challenge because it eats into the payload capability. Batteries are especially challenging for long-haul trucking. Using e-turbos on those big diesels has potential to reduce the worst pollutants produced by those engines." And I imagine there is an increase in fuel efficiency to be gained there as well, and that is a big selling point.
