Policies to entice consumers away from fossil-fuel powered vehicles and normalize low carbon, alternative-fuel alternatives, such as electric vehicles, are vital if the world is to significantly reduce transport sector carbon pure-emissions, according to a new study.

Ultimately, the authors suggest, states can encourage the reduction of fuel GHG emissions by developing policies, such as a low carbon fuel standard (LCFS), that encourage incremental improvements in corn ethanol in the short term and in the medium term by switching to cellulosic-derived fuels.

The LCFS program calls for a 10% reduction in the carbon intensity of fuel sold in California over the next decade. Obligated parties are upstream producers and importers of gasoline and diesel fuel sold in the state. The program is agnostic as to which fuels can be used to meet the Standard.

The project identifies possible paths to a low-carbon, low-petroleum future in the US transportation sector, and also looks beyond technology to examine the marketplace, consumer behavior, industry capabilities, and infrastructure. The transportation sector accounts for 71% of total US petroleum consumption and 33% of total carbon emissions.

In October, Virgin Atlantic, in partnership with LanzaTech and Swedish Biofuels, announced the development of a low-carbon, synthetic jet fuel kerosene produced from industrial waste gases with half the carbon footprint of the standard fossil fuel alternative. FAA alternative jet fuel awards.

In one way, the program in question—the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS)—is a relic from a bygone era. A more recent study found that, since the program coaxed farmers into using more land for corn cultivation, RFS biofuel wasn’t actually any less carbon-intensive than gasoline. In 2016, a U.S. Now, it is 2022. says Nunes.
