Reaching 10% Renewable Transportation Fuels in 2020 by Electric-Vehicles in Styria/Austria
2012
Author(s): Jungmeier G, Felberbauer K-P, Beermann M
Electric-vehicles have the potential for a significant substitution of diesel and gasoline vehicles, and contribute to a reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) and particulate matter emissions. According to the European Renewable Energy Directive, the share of renewable transportation fuels should be 10% in 2020.
