JANUARY 11, 2023

Despite efforts to continue stimulating the US economy in the wake of the pandemic, high inflation put a damper on economic growth, which was exacerbated by a spike in oil prices as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. below 2005 levels. Consequently, the US economy grew 1.9% in 2022, down from a 5.7% GDP increase in 2021.

The study was commissioned by a coalition of fuel suppliers and automotive companies with a view to identifying a roadmap to 2030+ to identify GHG abatement options at the lowest cost to society. GHG abatement in road transport sector will cost approx. 150-200 (US$172-229) per ton of CO 2 e avoided. 34 Mton CO 2 e (WTW).

Biofuels grow at a slower rate due to lower crude oil prices and. The decline reflects increased domestic production of both petroleum and natural gas, increased use of biofuels, and lower demand resulting from the adoption of new vehicle fuel efficiency standards and rising energy prices. Biomass and biofuels growth is slower.

In 2005, Congress enacted the Renewable Fuel Standard as part of the Energy Policy Act (EPAct) and amended it in the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA). Resolving most of the barriers is necessary to achieving RFS2, and many of them are interrelated as illustrated by the examples below.

The deep ocean, oil shales, and oil sands are all potentially major sources of future oil production, but these are often expensive to access and their development may significantly increase the environmental costs of fossil fuel use. Nonetheless, high oil prices pushed production from the Canadian oil sands to 1.2
