Lastly, we examine alternative funding mechanisms include a fuel tax for hydrogen and electricity, as well as a road user charge (RUC). The fee penalizes plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, which must pay both the registration fee and the current gasoline tax (for any gasoline consumed).

Advanced vehicles powered by low-carbon sources of electricity or hydrogen offer an alternative to conventional fossil-fuelled technologies. In Norway, for example, 40% of passenger cars sold in 2017 were either battery-electrics or plug-in hybrids. Additionally, most consumers lack first-hand experience with these novel technologies.

The steady tightening of standards will first incentivize combustion efficiency and in parallel speed up the deployment of new low-carbon technologies and fuels, such as vehicles running on low-carbon electricity, hydrogen, compressed natural gas or sustainable biofuels. —CEPS report.

The obvious one is increased fuel taxes, but somehow governments need to make sure the benefits of better technology aren’t wiped out by increased demand for lower-priced fuel. hybrids, plug-ins, hydrogen) and at the same time leads to the diffusion of more efficient oil-powered vehicles.

This very rapid transition would need to be catalyzed by a combination of a more stringent ZEV mandate, buyer incentives, and deployment of public charging and hydrogen infrastructure. Transportation pricing: Gasoline taxes. Shift to VMT-based road fees as the number of ZEVs grows and fuel tax revenues decline.

Going beyond improvements in conventional technologies and conservation measures, a long-term transformation of the transportation energy system to one or more alternative fuels and energy sources is the ultimate piece of the puzzle of reducing petroleum consumption and GHG emissions.
