Book Synopsis Economic Implications of Natural Gas Vehicle Technology in U.S. Private Automobile Transportation by : Oghenerume Christopher Kragha
Download or read book Economic Implications of Natural Gas Vehicle Technology in U.S. Private Automobile Transportation written by Oghenerume Christopher Kragha and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transportation represents almost 28 percent of the United States' energy demand. Approximately 95 percent of U.S. transportation utilizes petroleum, the majority of which is imported. With significant domestic conventional gas resources, optimistic projections of unconventional natural gas resources, and the growing international liquefied natural gas (LNG) market, gas prices are expected to remain lower than oil. While natural gas currently provides approximately 24 percent of the United States' energy consumption, there has been no significant growth in the natural gas vehicle market in the past fifteen years. Natural gas has comparative environmental advantages to gasoline and diesel, with lower CO2 emissions per mega joule of fuel consumption. A natural gas powered vehicle fleet could reduce the country's fuel costs, dependence on imported fuel, and greenhouse gas emissions. To fully comprehend the future role of natural gas vehicles in the United States, all the major technological and market forces affecting the successful deployment of this vehicle technology must be analyzed interdependently under market and energy policy-regulated scenarios. I investigate the potential role of natural gas in transportation using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the global economy that is resolved for the US and other major countries and regions. To do so, I add a dedicated compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle option to the Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) Model as an option to the conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle. The model projects changing prices of fuel and other goods over time, given specification of resource availabilities. With the CNG vehicle specification I am able to evaluate the effect of the CNG option on transportation emissions, oil imports, natural gas use, and other economic indicators. I consider different policy scenarios for the future, including the adoption of a targeted emissions cap policy to see how that affects the competitiveness of CNG vehicles. Several conclusions about the potential role of nature gas vehicles in the United States are drawn from this analysis. First, NG vehicles will reduce household transportation emissions in proportion to their share of the vehicle fleet. Second, stringent emissions policies will stimulate the penetration of natural gas vehicles, but high vehicle costs and infrastructure may hinder their deployment. There is a correlation between increased NG vehicle use and the reduction of oil imports. In the long term, development of cleaner alternative fuels with similar infrastructure to gasoline may hamper CNG vehicle growth.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is a detailed comparative analysis of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG). The study provides data on two alternative fuels used by transit agencies in Texas. First, the state-of-the-art in alternative fuels is examined to establish a framework for the study. Efforts were made to examine selected characteristics of two types of NG demonstrations in terms of the following properties: energy source characteristics, vehicle performance and emissions, operations, maintenance, reliability, safety costs, and fuel availability. Where feasible, two alternative fuels were compared with conventional gasoline and diesel fuel. Environmental considerations relative to fuel distribution and use are analyzed, with a focus on examining flammability and other safety-related issues. The objectives of the study included assessing the state-of-the-art and document-relevant findings pertaining to alternative fuels, analyzing and synthesizing existing databases on two NG alternatives (LNG and CNG), comparing two alternative fuels used by transit agencies in Texas, and addressing selected aspects of alternative fuels such as energy source characteristics, vehicle performance and emissions, safety, costs, maintenance and operations, and environmental issues. A profile of two alternative fuels used by Texas transit agencies is presented. The comparisons made about properties of LNG and CNG provide a context within which an assessment of other alternative fuels such as methanol, ethanol, and electric vehicles can be made. The findings of the study will contribute to existing evidence on alternative fuels. Data included in the study will be useful to transportation industry officials in the public and private sector. Comparative data on alternative fuels will contribute to a greater understanding of their use and enhance policy decisions about alternative fuels.

Book Synopsis Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels by : National Research Council
Download or read book Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-04-14 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a century, almost all light-duty vehicles (LDVs) have been powered by internal combustion engines operating on petroleum fuels. Energy security concerns about petroleum imports and the effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on global climate are driving interest in alternatives. Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels assesses the potential for reducing petroleum consumption and GHG emissions by 80 percent across the U.S. LDV fleet by 2050, relative to 2005. This report examines the current capability and estimated future performance and costs for each vehicle type and non-petroleum-based fuel technology as options that could significantly contribute to these goals. By analyzing scenarios that combine various fuel and vehicle pathways, the report also identifies barriers to implementation of these technologies and suggests policies to achieve the desired reductions. Several scenarios are promising, but strong, and effective policies such as research and development, subsidies, energy taxes, or regulations will be necessary to overcome barriers, such as cost and consumer choice.

Book excerpt: The report describes the experience of the City of Houston in defining the compressed natural gas fueled vehicle research scope and issues. It details the ways in which the project met initial expectations, and how the project scope, focus, and duration were adjusted in response to unanticipated results. It provides examples of real world successes and failures in efforts to commercialize basic research in adapting a proven technology (natural gas) to a noncommercially proven application (vehicles). Phase one of the demonstration study investigates, develops, documents, and disseminates information regarding the economic, operational, and environmental implications of utilizing compressed natural gas (CNG) in various truck fueling applications. The four (4) truck classes investigated are light duty gasoline trucks, medium duty gasoline trucks, medium duty diesel trucks and heavy duty diesel trucks. The project researches aftermarket CNG conversions for the first three vehicle classes and original equipment manufactured (OEM) CNG vehicles for light duty gasoline and heavy duty diesel classes. In phase two of the demonstration project, critical issues are identified and assessed with respect to implementing use of CNG fueled vehicles in a large vehicle fleet. These issues include defining changes in local, state, and industry CNG fueled vehicle related codes and standards; addressing vehicle fuel storage limitations; using standardized vehicle emission testing procedures and results; and resolving CNG refueling infrastructure implementation issues and related cost factors. The report identifies which CNG vehicle fueling options were tried and failed and which were tried and succeeded, with and without modifications. The conclusions include a caution regarding overly optimistic assessments of CNG vehicle technology at the initiation of the project.
