Two new reports—one on technology, the other on policy— released by the International Energy Agency (IEA) outline pathways to improve the fuel efficiency of combustion-engined road vehicles by 50% by the middle of the century, saving as much as four-fifths of current annual global oil consumption. Technology Roadmap.

The report argues that the biggest component of total transport reductions could come from more energy-efficient vehicles, combined with the gradual introduction of low-carbon fuels and new engine technologies. The EU must push member states to align taxation levels of different fuels and vehicle types and stop indirect subsidies.

Increasingly efficient conventional combustion-engine vehicles will be key in moving towards a low carbon future, according to the GFEI. The global vehicle fleet is predicted to double by 2050 with 80% of that growth in the developing world. —GFEI working paper. per liter ($0.26/gallon gallon US), according to the paper.

Achieving our overall goal—reducing fleet fuel and energy consumption and GHGs by three-quarters or more—will be extremely challenging. Average on-road fuel consumptions (tank to wheels) of the different propulsion systems in an average light-duty vehicle: 2010, 2030, and 2050. —John Heywood.

AUGUST 20, 2022
The total cost of purchasing and driving one—the cost of ownership—has fallen nearly to parity with a typical gasoline-fueled car. Scientists and engineers have extended the range of EVs by cramming ever more energy into their batteries, and vehicle charging networks have expanded in many countries. fleet of light vehicles.
