Recommendations for post-Euro 6 standards for light-duty vehicles in the European Union
2019
Author(s): Rodríguez F, Bernard Y, Dornoff J, Mock P
The report highlights the limitations of current emissions standards and provides detailed recommendations to overcome them. The recommendations cover several topics where the current light-duty vehicle emission standards should be strengthened. These topics include the emission of regulated, unregulated, and climate forcing pollutants; the testing regimes, data evaluation methods, and boundary conditions for demonstrating compliance with type-approval and in-service conformity testing; and measures to improve the durability, emissions performance, and compliance with the standards throughout the useful life of the vehicles.
Assesses progress in 2019 toward reducing black carbon emissions from diesel on-road light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles

Zero carbon: the opportunity, cost and benefits of the coupled decarbonization of the power and transport sectors in Latin America and the Caribbean
2019
Author(s): United Nations Environment Programme
This report shows that the transformational change needed to meet the Paris Agreement and reach net zero emissions by mid-century can be critically supported by coupling the decarbonization of the power and transport sectors. A coupled transition of both sectors would not only contribute to drastically reduce emissions but also has the potential to grow the region’s economy and improve public health.
This roadmap details out the role of energy storage systems in maintaining grid reliability with the increase in RE and EVE penetration of the grid and will also facilitate the utilities to understand the economic opportunities of energy storage system at various levels of RE and EV penetrations.
