Climate and Health Benefits of Policies to Address Emissions from Heavy-duty Vehicles
2021
Author(s): Jin L, Braun C, Miller J, Buysse C
Among transportation subsectors, on-road diesel vehicles are the leading contributor to air pollution and associated disease burdens. Within that group, heavy-duty vehicles are the main contributor to exhaust emissions, accounting for 86% of on-road diesel nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions in 2015.
European Union CO2 Standards for New Passenger Cars and Vans: Life-cycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions
2021
Author(s): Mock P, Bieker G
As part of the European Green Deal’s target of a climate neutral European Union by2050, the transport sector is called on to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by90% compared to 1990, and ICCT’s projections show that a large part of this reduction needs to come from passenger cars.
