Comments of the National Coalition for Advanced Transportation Comments of the National Coalition for Advanced Transportation On the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking: The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks 83 Fed. Reg. 42986 Docket Nos. NHTSA-2018-0067, EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0283, NHTSA-2017-0069 October 26, 2018 Submitted via Regulations.gov I. INTRODUCTION AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The National Coalition for Advanced Transportation (NCAT or Coalition) submits these comments in response to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) Notice of Proposed Rulemaking entitled “The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks,” Docket Nos. NHTSA-2018-0067 and EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0283, 83 Fed. Reg. 42986 (August 24, 2018) (NPRM). In addition, NCAT submits these comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for Model Year 2021–2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks, Docket No. NHTSA-2017-0069. NCAT is a coalition of companies and non-profit organizations that support electric vehicle (EV) and other advanced transportation technologies and related infrastructure.1 NCAT’s members include business leaders in auto manufacturing; electricity generation, transmission, storage and distribution; and manufacturing, deployment and operation of electric vehicle supply equipment—as well as non-profit organizations that advocate for EV owners and consumers and for pragmatic policy solutions to energy and environmental challenges. Electric and other advanced vehicles and related technologies and infrastructure provide major economic and energy security benefits, and U.S. leadership in this area is critical to our economic health, global competitiveness and environmental quality. NCAT supports government initiatives and regulatory programs that ensure that these critical investments continue and electric and that other clean vehicle technologies and infrastructure can compete in the marketplace. The Coalition recognizes the critical role that States play in adopting and implementing vehicle standards that support advanced technologies, and supports an approach 1 These comments represent an integrated package that reconciles individual member perspectives that may differ on specific issues; accordingly, no particular position should be attributed to any individual NCAT member. 1 National Coalition for Advanced Transportation Comments that provides regulatory certainty and stable, long-term signals to guide investment by many different stakeholders. NCAT has serious concerns regarding the NPRM, which would freeze vehicle standards at 2020 levels through 2026 and seeks to preempt California and other states’ greenhouse gas (GHG) and zero emission vehicle (ZEV) standards. NCAT strongly opposes any action that would undermine state regulatory authority, which is critical to protecting public health and spurring technology innovation. With regard to the federal corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) and Clean Air Act (CAA) greenhouse gas (GHG) standards, the proposal is based on flawed modeling and analysis and contrary to law. The rulemaking record reveals that NHTSA was almost solely responsible for the analysis on which the proposal is based, that EPA’s expert career staff and managers raised fundamental objections to this analysis, and that these concerns were not addressed. The resulting proposal would have serious adverse effects on U.S. global competitiveness and jobs, energy security, public health and the environment, and would disrupt long-term investment signals on which many U.S. companies, including NCAT’s members, rely. NCAT urges the agencies to adopt an alternative approach—one that would provide a “win-win” for the American public, auto manufacturers, public health and the environment. NCAT reiterates its strong support for an “Advanced Technologies Compliance Flexibilities” approach. This option would preserve state authority and maintain the top-line targets of the existing GHG standards, while providing manufacturers with additional compliance flexibilities focused on promoting the development and deployment of electric and other advanced vehicle technologies. CAFE standards would be harmonized accordingly, consistent with the Energy Policy and Conservation Act’s (EPCA) distinct legal requirements. Such an approach—which is within the scope of the agencies’ proposal—would address manufacturers’ near-term compliance concerns, largely preserve the overall benefits of the program, and prepare the foundation for further progress in fuel savings and GHG reductions in the years beyond 2025. Given the volume and complexity of the NPRM, the DEIS, and the supporting record, and the agencies’ refusal of NCAT’s and other stakeholders’ requests to meaningfully extend the comment period, these comments focus on the most significant issues in the NPRM. NCAT’s key comments, set forth in greater detail below, are as follows: 1. The agencies should adopt the Advanced Technologies Compliance Flexibility Approach, as described above. (Section II) 2. The NPRM’s negative statements regarding EVs—specifically with regard to costs, consumer acceptance, and issues related to charging infrastructure and grid management—are misplaced and should be corrected. The demand for EVs is growing dramatically. Manufacturers are investing tens of billions of dollars and offering dozens of new vehicle models, with significantly expanded range, across vehicle types. EV costs are falling rapidly and many analysts project that they will reach parity with conventional vehicle cost by 2025. Consumer acceptance and demand are growing accordingly. In addition, utilities and others are making substantial investments in charging infrastructure and electric grid upgrades, and increased EV usage will substantially benefit grid operation through increased use of fixed assets, ultimately benefitting all utility customers. (Section III) 2 National Coalition for Advanced Transportation Comments 3. The modeling and analysis upon which the NPRM is based are fundamentally flawed in several respects. These flaws include fleet turnover modeling (including the new vehicle purchase model and the scrappage model) and an inflated estimate of the rebound effect, each of which results in significant overstatement of the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reductions resulting from the proposal. This in turn results in substantial overstatement of the potential safety benefits of the proposal and underestimation of the proposal’s costs with regard to fuel consumption, GHG and non-GHG pollutant emissions, and other impacts. The agencies’ technology cost estimates—which are over twice what the same agencies estimated just two years ago and which drive much of the agencies’ analysis of fleet turnover, consumer benefits, consumer acceptance, and related issues—are likewise fundamentally flawed. (Section IV) 4. NHTSA’s proposed CAFE standards are not “maximum feasible” as required by EPCA and are otherwise unsupported by the rulemaking record and arbitrary and capricious. (Section V) 5. EPA’s proposed GHG standards do not comply with CAA Section 202(a) and are otherwise unsupported by the rulemaking record and arbitrary and capricious. (Section VI) 6. EPCA does not preempt California’s GHG or ZEV standards. (Section VII) 7. EPA lacks statutory authority to rescind the CAA waiver of preemption for California’s GHG and ZEV standards. In any event, EPA’s proposed waiver rescission, and its separate argument that states other than California are precluded from adopting California’s GHG or ZEV standards under CAA Section 177, are contrary to the statute and otherwise unsupported by the record and arbitrary and capricious. (Section VIII) 8. NHTSA’s DEIS does not comply with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). (Section IX) 9. Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, the agencies must prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis and convene a small business review panel to assess the impacts of the proposed rule on small businesses. (Section X) II. THE AGENCIES SHOULD ADOPT THE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES COMPLIANCE FLEXIBILITY OPTION Before turning to NCAT’s concerns with the proposed federal standards (discussed in Sections III-VI and IX and X), this Section outlines NCAT’s recommended approach to achieve a win-win outcome in the final standards. On May 2, 2018, NCAT submitted a letter to the agencies requesting that they propose an “Advanced Technologies Compliance Flexibility Option,” which would maintain the top-line targets in the current model year (MY) 2022-2025 GHG standards but provide manufacturers with certain additional compliance flexibilities. Under this approach, CAFE standards would be calibrated accordingly to maintain comparably robust targets and incorporate similar flexibilities. 3 National Coalition for Advanced Transportation Comments The flexibilities NCAT has supported, summarized below, would include a combination of the following elements: 1. continuing to attribute zero GHG emissions to EVs, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) when operating on electricity, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs); 2. extending and potentially restructuring credit multipliers for EVs, PHEVs, and FCVs; 3. reforming the current off-cycle credit recognition process while strengthening the integrity

  • ELECTRIC VEHICLES MARKET IS POWERING up an Industry Snapshot
    Investment and Company Research Opportunity Research INDUSTRY SNAPSHOT July 2, 2020 ELECTRIC VEHICLES MARKET IS POWERING UP An Industry Snapshot Featured Companies: Tesla (NASDAQ - TSLA); Nikola (NASDAQ – NKLA); Workhorse Group (NASDAQ – WKHS); Alternet Systems (OTC – ALYI) www.goldmanresearch.com Copyright © Goldman Small Cap Research, 2020 Page 1 of 8 Investment and Company Research Opportunity Research INDUSTRY SNAPSHOT OUR THESIS: As of this writing, shares of Tesla (NASDAQ – TSLA), the undisputed bellwether stock for the electric vehicle market trades at $1121 per share. At current prices, the market cap is over $207 billion, representing over 5 estimated 2021 sales and a whopping 98x next year’s EPS. In many investors’ minds, where Tesla goes, so goes the industry segment, especially as it relates to the capital markets. While TSLA is the industry’s most important company, it is the exact mid-point of 2020, not 2016, and therefore is not the only pubco in the space. In fact, some under the radar firms with exposure to the space offer major upside that may rival TSLA, with varying risk profiles and share prices. Instead of making the case for the industry and its constituents in the lithium, fuel cell, and other segments, we have elected to focus on the vehicle producers, where we believe the greatest attention and upside exist. THE EV MARKET: A BRIEF HISTORY We began writing about the EV market in 2015/2016 and while going over our old reports and blogs, we came across some striking information. In 2016, Bloomberg New Energy Finance (now billed as Bloomberg NEF) projected that by 2040, EV passenger sales will reach 41 million units.

  • 11 Electric Vehicle Stocks to Buy for 2021
    INVESTOR PLACE 11 ELECTRIC VEHICLE STOCKS TO BUY FOR 2021 LUKE LANGO How to turn the electric disruption of transportation into your million-dollar opportunity When it comes to identifying next-generation breakthrough investments that could rise 100%, 200%, 500%, or more, I always come back to one saying. Where there’s disruption, there’s opportunity. Case-in-point: The internet. Throughout the 1990s, the emergence of the internet rapidly disrupted how people across the globe worked, communicated, and played. For many, it was a scary time. Change is never easy. For many more, it was an exciting time, as the internet was unlocking a new world of possibilities. But… for investors… it was an opportunity. Specifically, it was a once-in-a-decade opportunity to invest early in emerging titans of the internet industry. Like Amazon (AMZN)… when it was a $438 million company in 1997… It’s a $1.6 TRILLION company today – representing a whopping 365,000% return. That means a mere $1,000 investment in Amazon in 1997 would be worth more than $3.6 million today. 2 Luke Lango’s Hypergrowth Investing Need I say more? Where there’s disruption, there’s opportunity – and the bigger the disruption, the bigger the opportunity. Right now, we are on the cusp of an enormous disruption. This disruption will fundamentally and entirely change the world’s multi-trillion-dollar transportation work. In its wake, it will create new hundred-billion-dollar titans of the auto industry – most of whom are just tiny companies today. What disruption am I talking about specifically? The shift toward electric vehicles.

  • GM Sells Shuttered Ohio Assembly Plant to Electric Vehicle Startup by David Welch November 7, 2019, 3:10 PM EST
    Hyperdrive GM Sells Shuttered Ohio Assembly Plant to Electric Vehicle Startup By David Welch November 7, 2019, 3:10 PM EST Lordstown Motors is still raising money for its plug-in pickup CEO Steve Burns says he hopes to start production in late 2020 rally-goers from selling their homes because of all the jobs he would bring back to the area. Democrats seized on the development as a symbol of unfulfilled promises made to voters in a key battleground state. Trump was so eager to endorse GM’s discussions to sell the Lordstown plant that he preempted the announcement of the talks in May by the largest U.S. automaker and Workhorse. But both companies are on shaky financial footing, with Workhorse totaling just $6,000 of revenue during its latest quarter. American flags fly in front of the GM plant in Lordstown, Ohio, in March. The automaker has sold the factory to Lordstown Motors. Lordstown Motors Corp., the electric-truck startup formed specifically to save a shuttered Ohio car factory, has acquired the highly politicized plant from General Motors Co. The acquisition that the two companies announced Thursday ends an era that began when GM opened the complex in 1966. The factory’s fate was largely sealed when the United Auto Workers union was unable to convince GM to keep it in the fold as part of a new labor contact ratified late last month. With the plant acquisition out of the way, Steve Burns, who Terms of the deal aren’t being disclosed. Workhorse Group used to lead Workhorse and is now chief executive officer Inc., which is affiliated with Lordstown Motors but doesn’t of Lordstown Motors, is turning his attention to phase two: share any ownership, soared 27% to close at $3.13 in New seeking cash to convert the Lordstown plant from making York trading.

  • Workhorse Group, INC--The Small Cincinnati Company “Delivering” in the Electric Vehicle Race
    June 2020 Will Brown Adam Eagleston CEO and Managing Partner CIO Workhorse Group, INC--The Small Cincinnati Company “Delivering” in the Electric Vehicle Race It is rare to find a company at the intersection of two major trends; it’s even more unusual that it is in your hometown. However, that is the case with the aptly named Workhorse Group, Inc. (ticker: WKHS) headquartered in Loveland, OH. Formidable Asset Management (“FAM”) recently established a position; following are the key pieces of our investment thesis: • Established technology and infrastructure • Marquee customers • Undervalued investments Overview Workhorse manufactures electric vehicles (both land-based and aerial), predominantly for use in deliveries (think Amazon, UPS, or the U.S. Postal Service). Despite its presence in this attractive niche, valuable intellectual property, and potentially transformative strategic partnerships, the company trades at a significant discount to our estimate of its intrinsic value. Established technology and infrastructure The company builds more than electric vehicles; it has developed an integrated platform to offer clients a holistic delivery solution that includes cost efficient ground vehicles, telematics to optimize deliveries, and unmanned aerial systems (UASs) for last mile delivery. In the company’s opinion, it is a first mover with a two-to-three year head start over its competitors, which is critically important. Once established, it is very difficult to displace an incumbent within the context of a vehicle fleet, especially one that is integrated. The company has seven (7) granted and four (4) pending patents. As we’ll see later, some of Workhorse’s core electric vehicle intellectual property is currently being licensed.

  • Heavy-Duty Vehicles & Freight Sector Baseline
    Heavy-duty Vehicles & Freight Sector Baseline ALLIANCE 50X50 COMMISSION ON U.S. TRANSPORTATION SECTOR EFFICIENCY Report by the Heavy-duty Vehicles & Freight Technical Committee September 26, 2018 PREAMBLE The Alliance to Save Energy launched the 50x50 Commission on U.S. Transportation Sector Efficiency (the “50x50 Commission”) to lay out regulatory, policy, and investment pathways to significantly improve energy efficiency in the U.S. transportation sector. Comprising executives and decision makers from a range of key stakeholder groups— including vehicle manufacturers, utilities, federal and subnational governments, technology developers and providers, environmental advocates, and targeted customers— the 50x50 Commission established the goal to reduce energy consumption in the U.S. transportation sector by 50 percent by 2050 on a pump-to-wheel (PTW) basis, relative to a 2016 baseline. The 50x50 Commission work is complementary to that of the Alliance Commission on National Energy Efficiency Policy, which recommended energy efficiency policies and practices that could lead to a second doubling of energy productivity by 2030. As transportation represents roughly one-third of overall energy consumption in the U.S., the transportation sector offers enormous potential for gains in both energy efficiency and energy productivity. The outputs of the 50x50 Commission include a foundational white paper that outlines the goals and scope of the Commission’s work, a set of five “sector baseline” reports that assess the current state of energy efficiency within the transportation sector, and a suite of policy recommendations outlining the types of government support, at all levels, necessary to achieve the 50x50 goal. This report, Heavy-duty Vehicles & Freight, is one of the five sector baseline reports that identifies the general market trends for efficient transportation technologies and explores opportunities and challenges related to deploying those technologies.

May 28, 2015 By Bill Adams — 6 Comments A nearby roadway may be putting your household’s health at risk. The same is true of workplaces, schools, and other places where people spend signifcant time. This health risk is from the elevated auto emissions near high trafc roadways. It’s a health risk separate and in addition to the regional air pollution from auto emissions. We have come to draw a false sense of security from our collective sharing of regional air pollution and, perhaps, the belief that regulatory agencies protect us. However, research continues to show that air pollution, particularly from auto emissions, has profound efects on health. Moreover, such impacts are unequally distributed among local populations, largely based on nearness to major roadways. Discussions about whether or not to build or expand roadways are dominated by the topics of trafc congestion relief, urban planning, and greenhouse gasses. The impact of roadways on Americans’ health and morbidity is often lost in the discussions. 53,000 U.S. deaths annually Additional Documentation Attachment to Comment Letter 2-F2 are attributable to automobile emission air pollution. (Calazzo, et al., 2013) Many more are ill or incapacitated from auto emissions. Ninety percent of the cancer risk from air pollution in Southern California is attributable to auto emissions.
