The agency’s reasoning was that since alternative fuel vehicle production has generally been less than 0.1% of total vehicle production until very recently, the impact of excluding alternative fuel vehicles was negligible. —EPA 2014 Trends report. Alt fuel vehicle impact on OEMs. EPA Trends report.

The Annual Energy Outlook 2015 (AEO2015) released today by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects that US energy imports and exports will come into balance—a first since the 1950s—because of continued oil and natural gas production growth and slow growth in energy demand. Tcf in the High Oil and Gas Resource case.

When a vehicle is tested for emissions and fuel economy on a chassis dynamometer, the load from aerodynamic drag, friction, and tire losses associated with road operation must be simulated. First, actual on-road operation must be characterized, which is referred to as the road-load force specification.
