Study: even with high LDV electrification, low-carbon biofuels will be necessary to meet 80% GHG reduction target; “daunting” policy implications

Green Car Congress

These 9 combinations became the reference scenarios with defined fuel requirements and GHG emissions. The reference case scenarios assume no change to GHG intensity from current levels. while the climate-targeted scenarios assume that electricity supply is decarbonized by 80%. Still, it is technically achievable.

Study suggests current levels of methane leakage would result in numerous decades of more rapid climate change from a shift to natural gas vehicles

Green Car Congress

Estimates of the net climate implications of fuel-switching strategies should be based on complete fuel cycles (e.g., well-to-wheels”) and account for changes in emissions of relevant radiative forcing agents. emissions through the natural gas supply network, hereafter referred to as CH 4.
