Study finds carbon emissions benefits of reduction in oil demand depend on size of drop and global oil market structure

Green Car Congress

In the paper, the researchers link econometric models of the production profitability of 1,933 global oilfields (representing about 90% of the world’s supply in 2015) with their production carbon intensity, a measure of the amount of carbon emitted per unit of energy (or barrel of oil) produced. —Mohammad Masnadi.

quadrillion Btu in 2035, as a result of fuel economy improvements achieved through stock turnover as older, less efficient vehicles are replaced by newer, more fuel-efficient vehicles. Beyond 2035, LDV energy demand begins to level off as increases in travel demand begin to exceed fuel economy improvements in the vehicle stock.

Roland Berger study outlines integrated vehicle and fuels roadmap for further abating transport GHG emissions 2030+ at lowest societal cost

Green Car Congress

Transport will also deliver tank-to-wheel emissions savings of 191 Mt CO 2 e between 2015 and 2030 to reduce the total well-to-wheel GHG emission in 2030 to 862 Mt CO 2 e. The well-to wheel-emission savings represent a 23% reduction in tank-to-wheel emissions and a 22% reduction in well-to-tank emissions.

Are biofuels the answer for green cars? The Green Piece

Green Cars News

Global use of biofuels will more than double between 2009 and 2015 – that is the verdict of Hart Energy Publishing’s Global Biofuels Centre (see article ). Generally, any alternative energy form that can help reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and limit our reliance on fossil fuels is well-received.

Change in primary oil demand by sector and region in the central New Policies Scenario, 2010-2035. The 450 Scenario works back from the international goal of limiting the long-term increase in the global mean temperature to two degrees Celsius (2 °C) above pre-industrial levels, in order to trace a plausible pathway to that goal.
