Compared to the 2010 “Business as Usual” scenario—which includes all adopted emission control measures for the South Coast—NO x levels must be reduced by 65% and by 75% to meet the 2023 and 2032 ozone standards, respectively. An 80% reduction of GHG emissions is targeted for 2050, relative to 1990 levels.

Many of the strategies employed to reduce GHG emissions will also work to meet the national ambient air quality standard for ozone in 2032. Since its launch in 2011, the regulation has generated a multitude of unique approaches for cleaner fuels. In 2014 ARB will consider extending the LCFS, with more aggressive targets for 2030.

The regulation sets a statewide limit on sources responsible for 85% of California’s greenhouse gas emissions and establishes a price signal needed to drive long-term investment in cleaner fuels and more efficient use of energy. the destruction of existing stores of ozone-depleting substances in the U.S.

While current state and federal measures are on target to reduce toxic diesel locomotive emissions 65% or more by 2020, additional measures recommended by ARB staff would ultimately provide up to 85% or greater emissions reductions within the rail yards over the same period, resulting in cleaner air for nearby residential neighborhoods as well.

The cap-and-trade program gives sources flexibility to make the most cost-effective choices about when and how to reduce emissions. Because the allowances can be traded, the program provides incentives for those with the most cost-effective reduction opportunities to reduce emissions quickly. Cost Containment Mechanisms.

And the grid is getting cleaner and more renewable every year. Simply put, the study found what advocates of electric transportation have long held to be true: as regards greenhouse gases and pollution generally speaking, the worst electricity is still better than petroleum. I truly hope we have turned a corner.

A longer service life reduces the fleet’s turnover rate to cleaner, lower-emitting engines, therefore increasing future-year emission estimates. A related study by DTF and EDF confirms that upgrading workboats to the newest-model clean diesel engines delivers the greatest emissions improvements for the lowest cost.

When such market failures occur, a case can be made for government interventions—such as regulations, taxes or tradable permits—to address these external costs, the report says.

These incentives help to pay the difference between the cost of alternative-fuel vehicles and conventional vehicles. In a separate action, the California Energy Commission approved $4,979,070 through the current ARFVT program to projects that will support increased numbers of cleaner, alternative fuel vehicles on California roadways.

But it’s a challenging thing to do, and we haven’t yet figured out ways to do it at scale that are cost-effective and sustaining, meaning you’ve taken the carbon dioxide out and it stays out reliably. And so the cost of that right now is really, really high. So there are a couple of different big categories within that.
