PZEV = Partial Zero Emission Vehicle, e.g. low emission combustion engined vehicle. it is the “currency” in which credits are stored in and does not represent actual values of g/mi NMOG. TZEV = Transitional Zero Emission Vehicle, e.g. a plug-in hybrid. There are also other parties generating credits that do not have ZEV requirements.

Ford will also be introducing the C-MAX Hybrid and the C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid—also to be built at Michigan Assembly— for sale in the second half of next year. More precise controls to deliver higher levels of refinement as the powertrain transitions between engine and electric drive. Earlier post.).

As both EV adoption increases and internal combustion engine vehicles have become more fuel efficient, states are seeking to offset lost revenue from the gas tax. Just as conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) cars measure fuel by the gallon, EV owners measure their energy consumption in kWh.

Trees are natural carbon sinks; they absorb carbon dioxide by photosynthesis, some of which is stored as carbon compounds in the wood—both during growth and even after harvesting, in the form of some wood products. Underground, forest soils and root structures store even more carbon. Calculating stored carbon; “additionality”.

The Brazilian experience shows that the presence of small (<10%) amounts of water in the fuel does not in itself cause a greater tendency to misfire in spark ignition engines than a proportionate leaning of the fuel/air mixture would do, provided that the vapor pressure of the hydrated ethanol at the ambient temperature is high enough.

Deciding that the future of transportation, and therefore their survival, will be based on EVs, many of the top auto companies have promised to end production of their internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles by 2035, if not earlier. The systems and software engineering challenges are materially more demanding.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Currently, there are some industrial facilities that use battery swapping to replenish the energy stores of electric forklifts.
