The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has proposed new zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) requirements through its Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) proceeding. This report evaluates the proposed rule using the California Energy Policy Simulator (EPS).
Ride-hailing trips today result in an estimated 69 percent more climate pollution on average than the trips they displace. Fortunately, the industry can implement several strategies to address the negative impacts of ride-hailing and contribute to a low-carbon transportation future.
Based on where EVs have been sold, driving the average EV produces global warming pollution equal to a gasoline vehicle that gets 88 miles per gallon (mpg) fuel economy.
Producing the electricity to power electric vehicles can generate emissions. But those emissions levels are far lower than the pollution emitted by conventional vehicles, and could be even lower as the electric power sector cleans up over next few decades, according to a new report issued today.
The present study aims to access the impacts of incorporating electrification of other economic sectors (and hydrogen production) into a carbon constrained electricity system across the state of Colorado.
This report is the first four-year update to the 2015 pLAn. It augments, expands, and elaborates in even more detail L.A.’s vision for a sustainable future, including climate change policy. This report is also referred to as L.A.'s Green New Deal.
This paper shows how EV100, a consortium of 31 major companies with $0.5 trillion in revenue between them, are taking major steps towards electrification of their vehicle fleets. It also discusses how...
The report contains the findings from a report that estimates the impacts of increasing plug-in electric vehicle use in Arizona. Authors found that increased adoption of clean PEVs would reduce resid...
This literature review aims to understand the status of MD/HD electrification technologies, trends in battery costs, and emissions benefits.
The analysis in this report is a cost and benefit analysis of greenhouse gas emission abatement strategies from on-road vehicles in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions....
