Sharp risers include Brazil (+ 6.2%), India (+ 4.4%), China (+ 4.2%) and Indonesia (+2.3%). In comparison, China’s emissions per 1000 US$ of GDP are almost twice those of the US (330 kg CO 2 /1000 US$) and almost three times those of the EU (220 kg CO 2 /1000 US$).

While the proposed China regulation for 2020 is more stringent than the glide path, the 2017 Brazil regulation is less stringent. Brazil recently proposed passenger vehicle CO 2 emissions regulations of 135 g CO 2 /km by 2017,57 considerably less stringent than the 450 ppm glide path result of 126 g CO 2 /km in 2015.

However, if both ethanol and bioelectricity are used in an optimized proportion, 385 billion liters of ethanol and 262 TWh of electricity would be enough to power the US fleet and, in Brazil, 33 billion liters of ethanol and 23 TWh would be sufficient to operate the fleet for a one-year period.
