Enabling drivers to recharge their vehicles across the member states will be ensured by the related revision of the deployment of an alternativefuels infrastructure (AFIR). The Council also agreed to introduce a 100% CO 2 emissions reduction target by 2035 for new cars and vans—i.e.,
Naturally, much of the discussion on the cost-benefit comparison of decarbonizing alternatives—particularly on alternativefuel solutions for long- haul heavy trucks—is based on assumptions about future technological developments that are uncertain.
To support this proposal, investments need to be channeled into zero-emission vehicles and into the recharging and refueling infrastructure. The Commission has already proposed the AlternativeFuels Infrastructure Regulation to develop the necessary charging infrastructure to support the green transition of the heavy duty vehicles sector.
The outlook for oil demand differs sharply between the three scenarios, primarily as a result of the different assumptions about government policies, such as fuel efficiency standards, removal of end-user subsidies and support for alternativefuels, and the extent to which they succeed in curbing oil demand.
The discussions focussed on the potential gains to be made in the areas of Fuels and Fuel Economy, Electrification and Traffic Management, each of which were examined through a series of provocative presentations and workshop sessions. If the transport sector gets fixed, that has an enormous downward impact on both fuel and CO2”.
Alternativefuel technologies have been embraced in Seattle, after the city was awarded a $1.4million grant from the US Department of Energy to enhance its fleet of green vehicles. So how will the money be spent? It will also pick up $500,000 for the installation of electric vehicle charging stations.
On the flip side, you’ll see lower maintenance and fuel costs if you’re switching from a gas-powered vehicle. Additionally, HEVs tend to use less fuel than conventional petrol or diesel cars, and they emit lower levels of CO2. No recharging from an external source is involved.
The first manufacturer to produce a full production hybrid, in the form of the iconic Prius, Toyota has also made significant advancements in the development of electric, hydrogen and alternativefuel vehicles. But what about hydrogen fuel cells? Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is the cleanest-burning fossil fuel.

Peripheral circumstances are different everywhere, says TNT CO2 manager Mr Bjorn Sawilla. Forgot your password? In the Netherlands TNT is still piloting EVs.
A key thing, he said, will be to recharge the batteries at an acceptable time for the electricity grid — to “make sure people aren’t charging at the very peak, peak time,” like late afternoon when the electricity grid is already weighted down by demands like air conditioning.

will become less common over the next 10-years and that a mix of alternativefuel vehicles including electric, biofuel, hydrogen and solar will and is now seeing tremendous market growth. The electricity for recharging has to come from somewhere, which means power plants. There is significant cause vs. effect debate on CO2.
The program’s initial goal is to establish an interconnected system of AlternativeFuel Corridors (AFCs) featuring DC fast chargers every 50 miles. million charging points will be needed by 2030 to support the level of vehicle electrification necessary to reach the EUs 55% CO2 reduction for vehicular transportation.
