The mayors of London, Paris, Los Angeles, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Quito, Vancouver, Mexico City, Milan, Seattle, Auckland and Cape Town have pledged to procure only zero-emission buses from 2025 and ensure that a major area of their city is zero emission by 2030. Lead by example by procuring zero emission vehicles for city fleets.

Researchers from the University of Turku in Finland, Imperial College London and University College London have devised a synthetic metabolic pathway for producing renewable propane from engineered E. Although we have only produced tiny amounts so far, the fuel we have produced is ready to be used in an engine straight away.

British Airways, in partnership with the Solena Group , will establish Europe’s first plant for sustainable jet-fuel and plans to use the low-carbon fuel to power part of its fleet from 2014. The plant will gasify waste biomass, and use a Fischer-Tropsch process to convert the resulting syngas to biojet fuel and bionaphtha.

The Model Fuels Consortium (MFC) II ( earlier post ), led by Reaction Design, a leading developer of combustion simulation software, is developing software that its members can use to simulate accurately the formation of soot particulates. Reaction Design is using representative molecules from each fuel class (e.g., aromatics).

A team of researchers in China suggest that, in the context of promoting the use of clean fuel vehicles and increasing vehicle fuel efficiency, CO 2 emissions of China’s urban passenger transport sector could reach a peak of 225 MtCO 2 in 2030. Shifting to the alternative fuels also plays an important role.

In California’s Los Angeles Basin, levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pollutants have decreased by about 98% since the 1960s, even as area residents now burn approximately three times as much gasoline and diesel fuel. The reason is simple: cars are getting cleaner. The difference was amazing. —Warneke et al.

Despite this, an analysis of more than 1,800 major roads show that a small number of these—81 or 4%—are due to breach legal pollution limits for NO 2 , with 33 of these outside of London.

The title of their piece, Mr Engine Fuels the Future , probably tells you all you need to know. Hatz, in short: Hybrids are bogus - "a very expensive way to save a small amount of fuel." Low carbon cars don't make the air cleaner. Diesel is more efficient than gas, it just needs good filters. What about diesel hybrids?

It almost seems as though London is against us mere motorists. With some great transport links to take advantage of, having a car in London isn’t always necessary or practical. Why are EVs best for London? Soon enough, you’ll only be able to buy a new EV in London, or anywhere else in the country for that matter.

This makes a lot of EVs cheaper than currently available fuel cars. Furthermore, EVs are also more economic to own than their gas counterparts. Research in the US shows that, on average, an EV owner saves $632 per year in operational expenditures compared to a fuel car driver. Are EVs as fast as fuel cars?

It probably doesn’t help the yellow element’s noxious reputation to learn that most of the world’s sulfur comes as a byproduct of refining fossil fuels. In a net-zero future, a future where petroleum and natural gas production enter terminal decline and never return to their past carbon-spewing heights, sulfur production will fall away, too.
