Many of the vehicles on the road in 2030 will have been built by 2015, and these will lower the fuel economy of the on-road fleet. Therefore, battery pack costs in 2050 for a 100-mile real-world travel range are expected to drop by a factor of about 5. Making hydrogen with low GHG emissions is more costly (e.g.,
