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. —McCollum et al.

There are many options available for reducing the fuel, energy, and GHG emissions impacts of LDVs. Achieving our overall goal—reducing fleet fuel and energy consumption and GHGs by three-quarters or more—will be extremely challenging.

Transport GHG emissions in the “No New Policies” case (NNP) and the “Lowest” case (L). The horizontal lines indicate 60% reduction from year-1990 levels. Achieving the Lowest Emissions case would require government spending of at least 2% of EU27 GDP. Credit: ACS, Dray et al. Click to enlarge. This is the subject of this paper. —Dray et al.

Based on our current projections, the well-to-wheel emissions advantage of EVs over ICE-propelled vehicles, currently estimated at 40 to 60 percent, will fall to 30 to 50 percent in 2020 as advances in ICE technologies narrow the gap and power generation from clean non-fossil fuels continues to grow slowly in most regions.
