Among the key findings of the study were: Maintaining the existing vehicle efficiency and fuels regulations to 2030 will lower tank-to-wheel GHG emissions from road transport to 647 Mt representing a 29% reduction compared to 2005 levels, achieving almost aspired level for 2030. FCVs fueled with low carbon, renewable hydrogen (for PC).

Achieving those goals will will be difficult—but not impossible to meet—and will necessitate a combination of more efficient vehicles; the use of alternative fuels such as biofuels, electricity, and hydrogen; and strong government policies to overcome high costs and influence consumer choices. Major Findings.

A paper by researchers at the University of Minnesota, published in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology , projects GHG mitigation strategies for Minnesota, which has adopted a strategic goal of 80% emissions reductions below 2005 levels by 2050. Complete transition to corn-based ethanol for personal vehicles (7% reduction).

I f there is any doubt that GM is serious about PHEVs, here is one more story that indicates that they are indeed very serious. Sales tripled the following year and topped 60,000 for the first time in 2005. E veryday, more businesses, more cities, more alternative fuel groups, more non profit organizations are joining Plug in Partners.
