The action plan also encompasses a range of initiatives, including a focus on clean transportation. They further agreed to reduce air pollutant emissions by aligning air pollutant emission standards for light- and heavy-duty vehicles and corresponding ultra low-sulfur fuel standards by 2018.

Global GHG emissions continue to be dominated by fossil carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions, which however show a slowdown trend since 2012, and were stalled for the third year in a row in 2016. Emissions from international transport (aviation and shipping) contribute another 3% to the total global GHG emissions. below the levels in 2005.

The pros of going gasless include reduced maintenance costs, lower fuel expense and—most importantly—less pollution. In fact, from 2014 to 2016, battery prices fell by 50 percent, allowing EVs to gain some traction. Fewer Traffic Jams, Less Pollution. What’s Next for Electric Self-Driving Cars?

The 2016 Chevrolet Volt with an electric range of 53 miles [ 2 ] is the first commercial car that almost qualifies as a PHEVLER. PHEVLERs [ 3 ] are a disruptive technology that will help revolutionize both the clean transportation and the clean stationary energy sectors of our economy. He has a Ph.D. Table of Contents.

Regulatory regimes seeking to reduce emissions from transport have largely focused on tailpipe emissions—i.e., the criteria pollutants and CO 2 that emerge with the exhaust from the tailpipe. The composition therefore differs depending on the rock material used. —van der Gon et al. A 2014 study by Weinbruch et al. in Belgium.

Low-temperature PEM fuel cells that use Nafion are at present being commercialized in fuel cell vehicles, but these cells can operate only at relatively low temperatures and high hydration levels; therefore, they require humidified inlet streams and large radiators to dissipate waste heat.

If PHEVs became the major form of transportation, the use of fossil fuels would be cut dramatically. This is especially true in air, sea, and some ground transportation as well as in industrial processes. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. Engineering Advantages of the PHEV.
