  • New Battery to Last 10 Times As Long
    Energy Grants Back Plug-In Cars, Ethanol By Sholnn Freeman Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, January 24, 2007; Page D03 The Department of Energy announced yesterday $17 million in grants to support the development of battery technology for plug-in hybrid vehicles and ethanol, two areas in the energy debate where officials in Washington and Detroit are closely aligned. The money will be offered as two grants, one for $14 million for the plug-in technology and the other for $3 million for ethanol. The money for battery development is intended to improve the technology's performance. The $3 million in ethanol grants will support engineering advances to improve how flex-fuel engines use the E85 blend… Foreign automakers are stepping up complaints that U.S. government policy is unfairly backing ethanol and plug-ins at the expense of diesels and traditional gas-electric hybrids, such as the Toyota Prius. Toyota is pushing to continue federal incentives for the cars. Diesel-engine makers and European automakers such as BMW and DaimlerChrysler are asking for more federal support for diesel technology http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/23/AR2007012300870.html Ford Edge plug-in hybrid concept does 41mpg Mobilemag.com – USA. That HySeries Drive concept that was making the rounds at the Detroit Auto Show has been unleashed on the public in the form of the Ford Edge, launching the venerable American automaker firmly into the plug-in electric market. The new vehicle, running on a flexible powertrain, can guarantee up to 41mpg with no emissions. The innovative HySeries Drive uses a combination of gas engine, diesel engine, and fuel cell to achieve that rather remarkable mpg figure, which increases to 80 if you don't top 50 miles a day and, in the best cases, 400 miles between fill-ups.

  • Clean Energy Manufacturing in California
    Clean Energy Manufacturing in California Report Prepared for Apollo Alliance BlueGreen Alliance Clean Energy Manufacturing Project San Francisco, CA Joel S. Yudken, Ph.D. Principal, High Road Strategies, LLC 104 N. Columbus Street, Arlington, VA 22203 (703) 528-7896 (o) • (703) 980-8122 (c) [email protected] • www.highroadstrategies.com July 17, 2011 1. Introduction The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of clean energy manufacturing in the state of California. California enjoys a unique place in the nation, if not the world, as a pioneer in the development and adoption of renewable energy technologies. It has a long history going back to the 1970s, at least, with both state and federal programs that have directly encouraged and fostered growth in clean energy systems—in areas such as solar, wind, advanced batteries and biofuels, in particular. This history has made California the premier state in the nation, and global leader, in clean energy production and manufacturing. This report reviews the current state of clean energy manufacturing in California in particular, viewing it in the context of its huge manufacturing base—the largest in the nation—and its well-developed clean energy economy value chain. Primarily, however, the discussion centers an examination of the the principal federal and state policies and initiatives that have played—and continue to play—a critical role in spawning, developing, and sustaining the state’s considerable clean energy manufacturing sector. At the end, it touches on the challenges and barriers that need to be addressed to maintain and extend this sector, in the face of the worst economic recession—and highest unemployment—the state has faced in many decades, not to mention its severe budget crisis.

As directed by the 2006 ordinance (Exhibit 1 - SLC Code 12.56.205), a qualifying vehicle was required to either achieve a minimum EPA designated city fuel economy rating of 41 MPG or an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Air Pollution Score (a.k.a. Smog Rating) of at least 8 (on a scale of 1-10). In 2018, the Salt Lake City Council passed an ordinance, amending ordinance 12.56.205, to introduce more stringent criteria for vehicles qualifying for the program. This was done due to the high numbers of vehicles qualifying for the program, the expected rapid acceleration of new vehicles qualifying and to ensure that the free parking incentive is only provided, ongoing, to the cleanest, most efficient vehicles.

  • Get America Moving Again (GAMA) Recommendations to Stimulate Renewal, Growth, and Global Leadership and Support National Security in the Movement of People and Goods
    Ï May 2020 Get America Moving Again (GAMA) Recommendations to Stimulate Renewal, Growth, and Global Leadership and Support National Security in the Movement of People and Goods This is a challenging and unprecedented moment in history. By the end of the pandemic, hundreds of thousands of people will have died globally and millions more will have been infected. In addition to the tragic and mounting human toll, this moment is an inflection point, one at which a new and bright spotlight has illuminated changes in our economy that have evolved over the past few decades. We see the benefits of foreign trade in the prices we pay,1 and are aware of the human cost as jobs have moved offshore.2 But this experience has demonstrated the extent to which China has come to undermine our security by dominating critical links in the supply chains for the goods that help keep our nation safe, from pharmaceuticals to medical PPE. Yet, we have additional critical supply chains that we and our partners must rebuild and reinforce to protect against future threats to our economies and way of life: Transportation, so we can go where we want and get goods to consumers; energy, so we have the power to get there; and, 5G, so we can do those things without compromising our personal information or national secrets. Free movement and open roads define us and demand our protection. In addition to meeting that macroeconomic challenge, which will take a serious and sustained effort over time, we also must address immediate economic challenges at home.
