The study found that 60% of the winter primary hydrocarbon hydroxyl radical reactivity in London is from those diesel-related hydrocarbons; the authors predicted that the longer-chain HCs contribute up to 50 % of the ozone production potential in London. —Dunmore et al.

Savings for Fleets Not only can EV charging stations help you generate revenue, but they can also support cost-saving fleet electrification programs. For hospitals and medical centers with an ambulatory or EMS fleet, switching from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to EVs could save as much as 75% in fleet maintenance costs.

The Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) has partnered with the Center for Transportation and the Environment (CTE) and Smith Electric Vehicles Corporation (Smith Electric) to reduce vehicle emissions from delivery trucks in the Houston-Galveston region. Its service area is 12,500 square miles and contains more than 6 million people.

A new report prepared by the World Bank at the request of the G8 identifies ways that the World Bank can do more through its projects to reduce the emission of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs): black carbon, methane, tropospheric ozone, and fluorinated gases known as HFCs. —Akbar et al.

This research points to the importance of two fundamental and parallel trends in energy and the environment. The electrification case assumes that the overall fraction of vehicle miles traveled by the US vehicle fleet using electricity stored in batteries is 17% for light-duty vehicles and 8% for medium-duty vehicles.

The study by Nadine Unger, Drew Shindell and James Wang will appear in an upcoming issue of the journal Atmospheric Environment. In the first scenario (S1), ORT emissions were reduced by 50% in the US and globally, with the assumption that the replacement energy to supply the fleet is provided by a clean zero emission source.
