Integrating Refrigerants with Low Global Warming Potential into India’s Light Vehicle Fuel Efficiency Standards
2022
Author(s): Deo A, German J, Callahan J
This study analyzes potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from using alternative refrigerants with low global warming potential and more efficient air conditioning systems in vehicles in India.
No Fleet Left Behind: Barriers and Opportunities for Small Fleet Zero-Emission Trucking
2022
Author(s): Brito J
This paper evaluates the zero-emission truck market and suggests actions to overcome barriers for adoption for small fleets. Failing to support small fleets would put them at risk of being unable to transition to zero-emission vehicles, in turn putting jurisdictions at risk of failing to achieve emissions reduction targets.
