A new study by the French institute Enerdata, commissioned by the European Federation for Transport & Environment (T&E), suggests that the European CO 2 standards for new vehicles due to come into effect in 2012 will lead not only to a European savings on oil (mainly via lower oil import volumes) but also to slightly lower global oil prices.

A more effective policy would rely on specific taxes and subsidies targeted directly at achieving specific environmental, energy and agricultural policy goals, according to the study. These biofuel policies never complement each other, but can on rare occasions be complementary to energy or environmental policy.

Past research concludes that achieving these goals through technological measures alone is difficult.Many transportation technologies currently in development show promise in significantly reducing energy use and CO 2 emissions before 2050. —Dray et al.
