2) We build a technical database containing parameters related to different travel tools, such as initial cost, operation and maintenance cost, life cycle, fuel price, energy efficiency level, annual mileage, and passenger load rate for vehicles that distinguish between fuel types and energy efficiency levels for each travel mode and vehicle.

Coal still supplies more power in the US than anything else, with natural gas next. However, building more coal and gas power plants to make miles for transport is counter-productive if the game plan is to reduce carbon output. Average fuel efficiency in the US is 22 miles per gallon (mpg). New cars in 2015 get 25 mpg.)

mpg and projected to rise modestly to 6.8 mpg by 2025 (EIA, 2009). This is also equivalent to the amount of CO 2 emitted from 20 coal-fired power plants in a year. Among medium- and heavy-trucks, Class 8 trucks are the largest CO 2 emitters and fuel users, consuming two-thirds of all truck fuel, or 1.57 million barrels per day.

As a result, the average efficiency of the world’s vehicle fleet is projected to reach about 46 mpg (about 5.1 liters per 100 km) compared to 24 mpg (9.8 Natural gas is projected to account for more than one quarter of all global energy needs by 2040 and it is expected to overtake coal as the largest source of electricity.

An industrial capital expenditure and fuel price adjustment for coal and residual fuel has been applied to reflect risk perception about the use of those fuels relative to natural gas. mpg in 2025. Updated handling of the representation of purchase decisions for alternative fuels for heavy-duty vehicles.

How does this sound: 100+ MPG in a regular vehicle? Plug-In Hybrids Are Cleaner (Even on a Coal Grid) [ to top ] This entire section is finally obsolete -- because we now have a definitive study by the Electric Power Research Institute and the Natural Resources Defense Council. What Are Plug-In Hybrids? The GREET 1.6

Chrysler isnt the first to realize that building an EV off of a Lotus platform makes for an incredibly fast and fun experience (see also: Tesla Roadster ) We escaped from the dark confines of Cobo Hall onto a decently sunny day and cruised along the river and past the Ren Cen, gunning the Circuit whenever possible.
