Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, and Yamaha have just collectively promised to develop a slew of hydrogen-reliant engines designed to power small vehicles. In 2017, Japan became the first country in the world to release a national hydrogen strategy. Presently, the vast majority of hydrogen is produced using coal or natural gas as feedstocks.

However, although the state has made considerable progress decoupling economic growth from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the rate of emissions decline appears to be slowing, due in part to a spike in transportation emissions attributed to an increase from light-duty vehicles. in emissions from on-road vehicles. from 2014 to 2015.

Gains in the fuel efficiency of new vehicles and aircrafts were not enough to offset the additional emissions caused by a higher demand in both passenger and goods transport. The average emission of new light commercial vehicles in 2015 was 168.3 g CO 2 /km, which is also below the 2017 target of 175 g CO 2 /km by 2017.

A new study by researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder projects the emission impacts of the widespread introduction of inexpensive and efficient electric vehicles into the US light duty vehicle (LDV) sector. Among their findings: Gasoline vehicles dominate in the BAU scenario for the entire time horizon.

The findings of this report will inform G20 work on energy and climate in the context of the 2017 German G20 presidency. Renewables need to account for the majority of power generation in 2050, based on continued rapid growth especially for solar and wind power in combination with enabling grids and new operating practices.

I would say that electricity is a vastly superior fuel for the light vehicle fleet,” said Willett Kempton , a professor and alternative energy specialist at the University of Delaware. Electrifying the entire vehicle fleet would provide more than three times the U.S.’s ’s power generation, he said. Thank you !
