Author(s): Naré H, Kamakaté F
Provides a roadmap to support the implementation of comprehensive clean fuel and vehicle policies in Southern and Western Africa.
Improved heavy-duty vehicle fuel efficiency in India: benefits, costs and environmental impacts
2017
Author(s): Nihan K, Gopal AR, Sharpe B, Delgado O, Bandivadekar A, Garg M
Examines the benefits and costs of fuel-saving technologies for new heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) in India over the next 10 years and, explores how various scenarios for the deployment of vehicles with these technologies will impact petroleum consumption and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions over the next three decades.
Annual statistical portrait of technologies, fuel consumption, and GHG and pollutant emissions in Europe’s passenger car, light-commercial, and heavy-duty fleets.
Cost assessment of near- and mid-term technologies to improve new aircraft fuel efficiency
2016
Author(s): Kharina A, Rutherford D, Zeinali M
Finds that fuel consumption of new aircraft designs could be cut by 25% in 2024 and 40% in 2034 using cost-effective emerging technologies—double the rate of improvement seen in designs coming from manufacturers now in response to market forces alone.
This study is an extension of ICCT’s work benchmarking U.S. airline fuel efficiency on domestic operations since 2010.
Potential low carbon fuel supply to the Pacific Coast region of North America
2015
Author(s): Malins C, Lutsey N, Galarza S, Shao Z, Searle S, Chudziak C, Berg M
Evaluates potential low-carbon fuel deployment in the 2015–2030 timeframe and finds that the policy goals of British Columbia, California, Oregon, and Washington are simultaneously achievable.
The state of clean transport policy: a 2014 synthesis of vehicle and fuel policy developments
2014
Author(s): Miller JD, Façanha C
A synopsis of advances in national and international regulations intended to reduce energy use, mitigate climate change, and control air pollution from motor vehicles and fuels across eleven major vehicle markets in 2013 and 2014.
The reduction of upstream greenhouse gas emissions from flaring and venting
2014
Author(s): Malins C, Searle S, Baral A, Galarza S, Wang H
A report for the European Commission describing regulatory options to allow crediting under the EU’s Fuel Quality Directive of upstream emission reductions from decreased venting and flaring of gas at oil drilling sites.
Annual statistical portrait of technologies, fuel consumption, and GHG and pollutant emissions in Europe’s passenger car, light commercial, and heavy-duty fleets.
This study estimates the effects of the timing and intensity of policies and adds uncertainty about technological progress to the previous study’s analysis of uncertainty about the market’s response. The analyses presented in this report are based on Scenario 2 of the previous report, in which the ZEV standards are enforced through 2025 and continued at the 2025 level through 2030 and then ended.
