Diesel is currently taxed at a lower level than gasoline in Europe; however, since 2011 the EC has been considering reversing that situation by making energy taxes systematically reflect the CO 2 performance of the energy product. A scheme including a decreased gasoline tax could bring about an increase in CO 2 emissions.

Transport GHG emissions in the “No New Policies” case (NNP) and the “Lowest” case (L). As deeper cuts are likely to be made in other sectors, this requires a cut of at least 60% in transportation GHG emissions, most notably CO 2 , by midcentury. They then estimated emissions based on fleet composition. Credit: ACS, Dray et al.

Although innovations in vehicle and fuel technology will have a substantial effect on reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transportation in the US, those gains will largely be offset by increases in travel along with growth in the US population, according to a new report from transportation consultancy Cambridge Systematics.

The results are published in the journal Transportation. We argue that assessment of the performance of the EU targets and alternatives should account for interactions of the transport sector with other energy sectors and with other parts of the economy. —Paltsev et al.

The UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC), the focal point for UK research on sustainable energy, today launched an extensive review of policies which could significantly reduce transport CO 2 emissions. It also discusses fuel taxes and prices, which affect both travel and vehicle choices. But there is a bigger picture.

Car fleet composition in the EU under the different scenarios. reduction in global oil consumption results in a drop in global oil prices of 1.2%. Most analyses of the economic assessments of energy efficiency measures normally use fixed oil prices when accounting for economic benefits. Click to enlarge.
