DOE recognizes that technology developments can help make vehicles more efficient and alternative fuels more economic, but the deployment of any technologies it helps develop is largely determined by policies, such as Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards. Impartial DOE research can help inform these standards.

Fuel economy is EPA rated at 24 mpg city, 28 highway, 25 combined. The mild hybrid system consists of a 48-volt electrical system that allows the engine to shut off when not needed, increasing fuel economy. Because of this we don’t address issues such as long-term reliability or total cost of ownership.

To help defray the added costs of development and construction of the first hybrid tug, both the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles contributed funding. This exceeds the EPA’s Tier 2 emissions requirement for marine engines. Along with less pollution, the Hybrid Tug offers improved fuel economy and lower maintenance costs.

This leads to scenarios where light duty vehicles are largely electrified, while aviation, marine and heavy duty continue to rely on liquids fuels. The report focused on two main alternative scenarios: plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) and combined PEVs and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs). —Yang et al. Realistic case for PEVs.

Reducing the environmental impact of freight transportation in the face of increasing trade and economic growth in North America requires much more than continued progress on fuel economy and transport technology. It is estimated that the North American economy will grow by 70–130% between the years 2005 and 2030.

There’s a second location in Corte Madera in Marin County. The freeway jaunt was to San Rafael, in Marin County, which meant open freeways, bridge crossings and a short test loop through town, where I showed off the car’s rocket acceleration to my son. Of course, the EPA “green” scores are 10 for both Smog and Greenhouse Gas.

The high cost of specialty precursor materials and the energy and capital-intensive nature of the conversion process are the principal contributors to the high cost of the end product. Growing demand from the automotive industry is due in large part to the global push to increase the fuel economy of nearly every vehicle produced.
