Compared to the reference case, in which gasoline vehicles (ICEVs) remain dominant through 2050 (BAU), OPT results in 16% and 36% reductions in LDV greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for 2030 and 2050, respectively, corresponding to 5% and 9% reductions in economy-wide emissions.

The transportation sector thus represents a significant fraction of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions both globally and in the US—light-duty vehicles (LDVs) are responsible for 17.5% Electrification will also reduce oil dependence, providing foreign policy benefits and the potential to reduce real oil prices and oil price volatility.

The necessary reduction of criteria and greenhouse gas emissions, both globally and locally. The perspective of rising oil prices is a turboboost for a change in customer behavior, he said. Does it ever make sense ecologically to operate a car with power from a coal-fired plant? Currently, cars contribute.

They assumed an oil price of US$80/bbl, close to the short-term. GHG emissions from electric driving depend most on the fuel type (coal or natural gas) used. 155 g/km (using electricity from an old coal-based plant). using natural gas, emitting 35-77 gCO 2 2 eq/km. and cheaper engines and battery packs.
