  • Electric Vehicle Pre-Infrastructure Planning a Discussion of Social, Economic, and Technological Readiness of Prince Edward Island
    University of Prince Edward Island Electric Vehicle Pre-Infrastructure Planning A Discussion of Social, Economic, and Technological Readiness of Prince Edward Island Georgina Vardy 10/22/2012 A localized study, focused on Prince Edward Island, Canada, compiled to assist with determining social, economic and technological readiness for electric vehicles and the related infrastructure. The study used both a Christensen based disruptive technology framework approach and traditional marketing techniques to determine social and economic readiness. Residents showed an interest and aptitude for the social changes required however the financial affordability of the electric vehicles for residents was limited without nationally available, but locally deficient, incentives. A technology scan determined that electric vehicle battery chemical content and design are determining factors in effectively satisfying social needs and acceptance. The next stage includes localized marketing development for this unique location, vehicles sales and infrastructure.

    Cars and Climate Change Passenger Vehicle Greenhouse Gas and Fuel Economy Standards: A Global Update 2 Passenger Vehicle Greenhouse Gas and Fuel Economy Standards: A Global Update The goal of the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) is to dramatically reduce conventional pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from personal, public, and goods transportation in order to improve air quality and human health, and mitigate climate change. The Council is made up of leading government officials and experts from around the world that participate as individuals based on their experience with air quality and transportation issues. The ICCT promotes best practices and comprehensive solutions to improve vehicle emissions and efficiency, increase fuel quality and sustainability of alternative fuels, reduce pollution from the in-use fleet, and curtail emissions from international goods movement. www.theicct.org Published by The International Council on Clean Transportation © July 2007 The International Council on Clean Transportation Designed by Big Think Studios Printed on 100% recycled paper with soy-based ink This document does not necessarily represent the views of organizations or government agencies represented by ICCT reviewers or participants. 3 Passenger Vehicle Greenhouse Gas and Fuel Economy Standards: A Global Update Authors: Feng An Innovation Center for Energy and Transportation Deborah Gordon Transportation Policy Consultant Hui He, Drew Kodjak, and Daniel Rutherford International Council on Clean Transportation Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank our many colleagues around the world that have generously contributed their time and insight in reviewing and commenting on the draft version of this report.

  • Auto Industry and Market Policy
    A Strong Canadian Auto Industry in a Fuel Efficient Future A Strong Canadian Auto Industry in a Fuel Efficient Future A commentary on automotive industry policy in the context of climate change, vehicle fuel efficiency regulations and carbon-constrained markets Prepared by: Bob Oliver Transportation Programme Director Pollution Probe December 2007 Pollution Probe 17 A Strong Canadian Auto Industry in a Fuel Efficient Future About this Commentary Pollution Probe believes that Canada needs a long-term vision and strategy to build a strong and globally competitive auto sector for the future. The auto manufacturing industry in Canada is composed of vehicle assembly operations and component producers. Generally, these facilities supply foreign automotive markets, exporting mainly to the US, generating significant wealth for Canada. The consumer market for automobiles in Canada is mainly supplied with imported models, thus expanding choice for Canadians. The right mix of industry policies and consumer market policies could help create the conditions for the long-term success of Canada’s auto industry. A crucial element of this success will be the capacity for this industry to build products that are consistent with the goals of environmental and economic sustainability. This commentary begins with a discussion of why fuel efficiency standards are needed and why governments around the world are implementing regulations. Aspects of the auto manufacturing industry and the consumer automobile market in Canada are then presented, followed by a discussion
