Emissions have declined in 6 out of the past 10 years, and energy‐related CO 2 emissions in 2016 were 823 MMmt (14%) below 2005 levels, according to the EIA. Transportation increase led by gasoline consumption.

Energy-related CO 2 emissions in 2015 were about 12% below 2005 levels. Specific circumstances, such as the very warm fourth quarter of 2015 and relatively low natural gas prices, put downward pressure on emissions as natural gas was substituted for coal in electricity generation.

Other key findings of the report: For the first year since 2009, gasoline cars constituted the majority of new registrations in 2017 (almost 53%). The proportion of electric vehicles (plug-in hybrid and battery electric cars) increased from 1.0% g CO 2 /km less than the average gasoline car. in 2016 to 1.5% g CO 2 /km).

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.

The Ford team updated the SMP model with historical data for 2000, 2005, and 2010, and extended the model to calculate the total CO 2 emissions (tonnes) and the TTW (tank-to-wheel) emission rate (g CO 2 /km) for the new vehicle fleet.

In the years since 2005, we have established and significantly enhanced the LBNL China End-Use Energy Model based on the level of diffusion of end use technologies and other drivers of energy demand. It is reduced by 900 Mtce to 4600 Mtce in AIS in 2050, a cumulative energy reduction of 26 billion tonnes of coal equivalent from 2005 to 2050.

Assuming no changes in policy related to greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide emissions grow slowly, but do not again reach 2005 levels until 2027. After falling 3% in 2008 and nearly 7% in 2009, largely driven by the economic downturn, energy-related CO 2 emissions do not return to 2005 levels (5,980 million metric tons) until 2027.
