This goal reflects contributions from both improved engines (7%–14% reduction in fuel consumption) and improved fuels (including 15 billion gallons/year of advanced biofuels). At a fleet level, Optima will result in an additional 9%–14% fleet greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction by 2040. Fuel Properties Characterization.

As a result, they conclude, uncertainties in the net greenhouse gas (GHG) effect of ethanol, particularly when used in a low-level blend with gasoline, are considerably larger than previously estimated. 15% to +24%. Standard deviations increase by >10% and >200% when used in high and low blends, respectively.

The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) It is much more than that.
