The impact of electric vehicles on CO[sub 2] emissions

Development and use of the GREET model to estimate fuel-cycle energy use and emissions of various transportation technologies and fuels

“…Bentley et al of A.D. Little prepared a study for the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) to estimate fuel-cycle CO, emissions from electric vehicles (EVs), fuel-cell vehicles (FCVs), and internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) powered by different fuels (Bentley et al 1992). The researchers included the following fuel cycles in their study: petroleum to gasoline, NG to methanol, NG to CNG, NG to hydrogen, corn to ethanol, and electricity generation from various fuels.…”

GREET 1.0 -- Transportation fuel cycles model: Methodology and use

“…NREL researchers estimated significantly larger CO, emission reductions by using ethanol than Delucchi did, primarily (Bentley et al 1992). The researchers included the following fuel cycles in their study: petroleum to gasoline, NG to methanol, NG to CNG, NG to hydrogen, corn to ethanol, and electricity generation from various fuels.…”
