Au cours de la même annonce, le fédéral indique qu'il a l'intention d’étudier la faisabilité de l'électrification des relais routiers. Une telle initiative permettrait aux camionneurs d’utiliser du courant de stationnement(shore power en anglais) pour faire fonctionner leurs appareils électriques lorsqu'ils sont à l'arrêt, plutôt que de faire tourner le moteur ou encore de risquer de drainer les batteries du véhicule. 1, record 14, French, - courant%20de%20stationnement

Correctly-stabilized sludge has no smell and is easy to drain. On leaving the stabilization tank, it appears as a brown liquor of even consistency, in which the coarse organic matter from the raw water has been dispersed and considerably reduced in volume.
