The study estimated national fuel and emissions impacts from increasing reliance on electrified light-duty transportation, and the resulting implications for advanced biofuels. For comparison, they team estimated the RFS goal for cellulosic fuels to be equivalent to 1289 PJ. —Meier et al. billion gallon) and 4540 PJ (56.4

On average, a 25% reduction in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2-eq) emissions can be expected on a well-to-wheel (WTW) basis when replacing gasoline by light-duty vehicles (LDVs) running on compressed natural gas (CNG).

A) CNG light-duty cars vs. gasoline cars; (B) CNG heavy-duty vehicles vs. diesel vehicles; and (C) combined-cycle natural gas plants vs. supercritical coal plants using low-CH 4 coal. A TWP >1 means that the cumulative radiative forcing from choosing natural gas today is higher than a current fuel option after t yr.

On 15 Sep, NHTSA and the US EPA proposed a joint rulemaking on fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions for light duty vehicles: an average new car 34.1 Three of the NHTSA scenarios for penetration of technologies for light trucks for MY 2016. This reduces pumping losses at lighter loads in comparison to a larger engine.

Appendix B: Car of the Future: A Comparison of Alternative Vehicles. It is alarming to see comparisons of the Chevrolet Volt PHEV with battery electric cars when the comparison focuses only on the electric range and ignores the other important differences. More information on e-mile comparisons is given by Reference Nº 2.

Hit the jump for a comparison that includes plenty of pics and video. Most charge points available today take much longer to re-energize batteries than it does to fill a gas-powered cars tank. Reply ↓ ↑ report 18 Efried 5:47AM (4/10/2009) I will hang a poster about the comparison at EVS24. not an issue.
