Moving zero-emission freight toward commercialization
Global transportation systems have begun a shift to newer, cleaner technologies that will meet greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction and air quality improvement goals that governments have developed or fleets have adopted for themselves. Though freight vehicles...
Implementing open smart charging
This report outlines the potential benefits of smart charging, whereby electric vehicle charging is managed in response to the needs of the energy system and vehicle users, and provides recommendations for how policymakers can ensure smart charging technologies are...
Funding the transition to all zero-emission vehicles
This white paper quantifies the costs, benefits, and appropriate government funding associated with the transition to all passenger zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). It assesses the key government support programs that are needed, for how long the need continues, and how...
Accelerating the transition to ZEVs in shared and autonomous fleets
This paper analyzes the development of shared and autonomous zero-emission mobility around the world and the lessons learned thus far. It assesses circumstances where shared and autonomous fleets present opportunities and challenges for transitioning to...
Lessons learned on early electric vehicle fast-charging deployments
This white paper provides an overview of electric vehicle fast charging installed around the world and the lessons to be learned thus far. We review future-looking studies in the context of current deployments to interpret what the future might hold for the number of...
Beyond road vehicles: Survey of zero-emission technology options across the transport sector
This working paper discusses the potential of zero-emission technologies to reduce emissions from non-road transport, including aviation, maritime, off-road, and rail.
Emerging best practices for electric vehicle charging infrastructure
This report provides a global assessment of charging infrastructure deployment practices, challenges, and emerging best practices in major electric vehicle markets. Although most early adopters charge their vehicles at home, public charging is an important part of the...
Developing hydrogen fueling infrastructure for fuel cell vehicles: A status update
This paper assesses the development of hydrogen fueling infrastructure networks around the world. We compile data on the current state of development of fuel cell vehicle technology. We summarize research on hydrogen fueling infrastructure, technology pathways,...
Transitioning to zero-emission heavy-duty freight vehicles
In this report, we assess zero-emission heavy-duty vehicle technology to support decarbonization of the freight sector. We compare the evolution of heavy-duty diesel, diesel hybrid, natural gas, fuel cell, and battery electric technologies in the 2025-2030 timeframe....
