A paper by a team from the University of Chicago and MIT suggests that technology-driven cost reductions in fossil fuels will lead to the continued use of fossil fuels—oil, gas, and coal—unless governments pass new taxes on carbon emissions. Their analysis is published in the Journal of Economic Perspectives.

A new MIT report outlines a system-oriented set of coordinated policies to help the light-duty vehicle sector reduce petroleum-based consumption and its accompanying global warming emissions. The study was supported in part by the MIT Energy Initiative. Tags: Climate Change Emissions Fuel Efficiency Policy. Heywood et al.,

Normalized well-to-wake GHG emissions for low-, baseline- and high-emission cases for jet fuel pathways under different land use change scenarios. It is the result of research and analysis performed under the Partnership for AiR Transportation Noise and Emission Reduction (PARTNER) at MIT and RAND. From Hileman et al. Hileman, David S.

Addressing climate change requires not only a clean electrical grid, but also a clean fuel to reduce emissions from industrial heat, long-haul heavy transportation, and long-duration energy storage. John Deutch, an emeritus Institute Professor at MIT.

A separate paper published online in Science Express by researchers from the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole and MIT concludes that indirect land use change associated with global biofuels programs will be responsible for substantially more carbon loss (up to twice as much) than direct land use. issue of the journal Science.

Based on the interim results of a new study, MIT researchers are warning smaller nations to proceed with caution in pursuing the development of their natural gas resources. The cost for these smaller nations makes up a larger portion of their economies, so before spending the money, they need to have the proper expectations.

The research for the report was done by a team of graduate students from 2009 to 2014, and includes some 20 projects. However, the flexibility and lower costs of PHEVs appear to trump this simplicity, certainly in the nearer term. The MIT Energy Initiative is MIT’s hub for energy research, education, and outreach.
