Cost-competitiveness of the electric truck diminishes in drive cycles with higher average speeds. Researchers at Georgia Tech have compared medium-duty (MD) electric and diesel urban delivery trucks in terms of life-cycle energy consumption, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and total cost of ownership (TCO).

They also found that the total costs of ownership (TCO) of the electric and diesel trucks are similar. Monte Carlo simulation results for different drive cycles (as a proxy for fuel economy), operational ranges (64 or 80 km; 40 or 50 miles), EVSE Level 1 or 2, and battery replacement (0 or 1) scenarios.

This project will develop and optimize a novel, engineered microorganism that produces a biodiesel-equivalent fuel from renewable hydrogen and carbon dioxide, at costs of less than $2.50 of Georgia). The critical barrier to wider deployment of electric vehicles is the high cost and low energy of today’s batteries. per gallon.

NOVEMBER 20, 2023

I entered the field in the mid-2000s, motivated by climate concerns, and I encountered a whole range of questions about the role of emerging technologies, potential policies to reshape our energy systems, and the implications of energy transitions. And there are states like Georgia where public interveners don’t have any right to discovery.
