In a study published in the journal Energy Economics , MIT researchers have found that a fuel economy standard is at least six to fourteen times less cost effective than a fuel tax when targeting an identical reduction in cumulative gasoline use (20% by 2050).

The model also includes representation of fleet turnover, and opportunities for fuel use and emissions abatement, including representation of electric vehicles. Emissions trading or a carbon tax is going to achieve their emissions goals at the lowest possible cost to society.

Advanced combustion technologies alone could reduce CO 2 tailpipe emissions by 40% from current average levels for new-vehicle fleets of 250 to 270 grams per kilometer (g/km) in the United States, 150 to 170 g/km in Europe, 130 to 140 g/km in Japan, and 200 to 215g/km in China, according to the analysis.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has estimated that fuel consumption and emissions of CO 2 from the world’s cars will roughly double between 2000 and 2050. Their share will fall to just under 40% by 2050, with aviation set to grow to match road freight at around 22% of fuel consumption and emissions each. Fuel taxes.

In coming months, the plan notes, the Department of Transportation will work with other agencies to further explore strategies for integrating alternative fuel vessels into the US flag fleet. In the United States, emissions of HFCs are expected to nearly triple by 2030, and double from current levels of 1.5%

In other words, the automakers still have to meet the fleet-based emissions requirements through their sales mix. Its goal was and is to reduce the environmental impact of light-duty vehicles through the gradual introduction of ZEVs into the California fleet. ARB first adopted the ZEV Regulation in 1990.

These provisions will ultimately strengthen the industries producing low carbon fuel alternatives and position the U.S. It is important that the United States leverage the emissions reductions offered by these low carbon fuel alternatives in its transportation fleet. New technologies need more.
