decline in energy-related CO2, according to the latest report from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). The natural gas share of electricity generation has grown as the coal share declined, partially offsetting the decline in energy-related CO 2 emissions from coal. Transportation increase led by gasoline consumption.

EPA projects advanced transmissions (6+ speeds and CVTs), gasoline direct injection (GDI) systems, and turbocharged engines will be installed on at least 15% of all MY 2013 vehicles. The majority of the emissions and fuel savings from current vehicles, EPA noted, is due to new gasoline vehicle technologies. Click to enlarge.

mpg increase over the previous year and an increase of nearly 5 mpg since 2004. The majority of the carbon and oil savings from current vehicles is due to new gasoline vehicle technologies, the report observed. Changes in market share from MY 2009 to MY 2014 for several key gasoline and diesel engine and transmission technologies.

In addition to high oil prices and the financial crisis, the increased use of new renewable energy sources, such as biofuels for road transport and wind energy for electricity generation, had a noticeable and mitigating impact on CO 2 emissions. Global CO2 emissions increased from 15.3 billion tonnes in 1970, to 22.5 and from 19.5

Research focuses on supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO 2 ) Brayton-cycle turbines, which typically would be used for bulk thermal and nuclear generation of electricity, including next-generation power reactors. The Brayton cycle could yield 20 MW of electricity from a package with a volume as small as four cubic meters.

With gasoline engines an exhaust gas heat exchanger would be very effective in warming up the drivetrain more quickly to the right temperature, avoiding friction in, for example, the gearbox. It has therefore become quite normal to fit cars with an additional electric heater providing such extra heat on up to 1,000 W of electrical energy.
