Green Star IRT

The Original Auxiliary Power Unit Engineered Specifically for the Fire Service


Idle Reduction Technology

Rosenbauer is the leader in Green Star Idle Reduction Technology (IRT), the original auxiliary power unit engineered for the fire service.


Green Star IRT uses electronic controls to shut down the chassis engine when the fire pump is not engaged, leading to less emissions and increased fuel savings. The system is the key to any department’s idle reduction strategy as well as the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA).

Rosenbauer Green Star IRT is the solution for departments who want to lower ground level emissions/pollutants, and help look out for their local and global environments.
