The GFEI, a partnership of international agencies and top energy policy experts, suggests that these cost savings could in part be used to help offset the costs of developing a global market for electric vehicles over this time frame, since the savings are estimated to be at least four times bigger than these costs.

The report shows that projected global ZEV adoption from 2015 to 2039 (based on the BNEF 2017 forecast) may follow an s-curve, similar to that of smartphone adoption in the US from 2005 to 2015. million target, set by California Governor Brown in 2012, was recently superseded by a new, 5.0-million million ZEV target by 2030.

Transport GHG emissions in the “No New Policies” case (NNP) and the “Lowest” case (L). The horizontal lines indicate 60% reduction from year-1990 levels. Achieving the Lowest Emissions case would require government spending of at least 2% of EU27 GDP. Credit: ACS, Dray et al. Click to enlarge. This is the subject of this paper. —Dray et al.

A new study by the French institute Enerdata, commissioned by the European Federation for Transport & Environment (T&E), suggests that the European CO 2 standards for new vehicles due to come into effect in 2012 will lead not only to a European savings on oil (mainly via lower oil import volumes) but also to slightly lower global oil prices.
