On a per-storage basis, the team found that the NiMH technology was found to have the highest environmental impact, followed by NCM and then LFP, for all categories considered except ozone depletion potential. They also found higher life cycle global warming emissions than have been previously reported.

More than three-quarters of HFC emissions in California come from the use of refrigerants in the commercial, industrial, residential, and transportation sectors. Organic wastes converted to biogas could supply enough renewable natural gas for about 2 million residential units.

In order to achieve the 2008 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards set by US EPA, CARB estimates that the South Coast Air Basin alone (including Los Angeles) will need an 80% reduction in NO x emissions by 2031. These vehicles currently account for about 20% of GHG emissions and oil use in the US transportation sector.

Here, RME show advantages for primary energy and GHG, but disadvantages in terms of acidification, eutrophication and ozone depletion. World Transport Biofuel Production. World ethanol production for transport fuel tripled between 2000 and 2007 from 17 billion to more than 52 billion liters (13.7 of the world’s transport fuel.

Regulatory regimes seeking to reduce emissions from transport have largely focused on tailpipe emissions—i.e., The participants in the 2011 workshop concluded: There is a clear lack of data in the field of road transport wear and suspension emissions to conclusively assess its importance for air quality and the impact on human health.

The fuel production component is shown in green. In order to effectively mitigate environmental impacts from transportation modes, life-cycle environmental performance should be considered including both the direct and indirect processes and services required to operate the vehicle. Other vehicle components are shown in shades of blue.

The damages the committee was able to quantify were an estimated $120 billion in the US in 2005, a number that reflects primarily health damages from air pollution associated with electricity generation and motor vehicle transportation. Transportation, which today relies almost exclusively on oil, accounts for nearly 30% of US energy demand.

In general, biofuels made from organic waste are environmentally more benign than those from energy crops. A few studies also include other relevant impact indicators as acidification potential, eutrophication potential, ozone depletion potential and various toxicity potentials. However very few studies include water use impacts.

I imagine there will be tax incentives to build green generators when were at that stage. Im gonna post a couple excerpts here: Most ozone pollution is caused by motor vehicles, which account for 72% of nitrogen oxides and 52% of reactive hydrocarbons (principal components of smog). (7, However, I dont welcome this news.
