fuel taxes increased between 2012 and 2015 in some large countries, and first steps towards removing lower tax rates on diesel compared to gasoline are taken, but apart from that there are no signs that the polluter pays principle determines the energy tax landscape more strongly in 2015 than in 2012. of emissions.

The key to obtaining significant reductions in transportation-related GHG emissions is to increase the cost of driving. The economy-wide CO 2 prices applied increase the cost of driving only marginally with respect to the business-as-usual case. Similar results hold for other macroeconomic indicators. —Morrow et al.

The GFEI, a partnership of international agencies and top energy policy experts, suggests that these cost savings could in part be used to help offset the costs of developing a global market for electric vehicles over this time frame, since the savings are estimated to be at least four times bigger than these costs.

However, the survey also found that the public may not yet be prepared for the tradeoffs and challenges needed to make these proposals a reality, with majorities rejecting measures such as a floor on gasoline prices, congestion charges, or higher fuel taxes. Anything that increases the cost of driving is soundly rejected by the public.

However, the flexibility and lower costs of PHEVs appear to trump this simplicity, certainly in the nearer term. The overall strategy should include conserving energy through changes in travel behavior, improving conventional technologies, and transforming the transportation system to increasingly use lower carbon energy sources.
