An Examination of Heavy-duty Trucks Drivetrain Options to Reduce GHG Emissions in British Columbia S. Mojtaba Lajevardi B.Sc., K.N.Toosi University of Technology, 2005 M.Sc., Sharif University of Technology, 2008 Supervisory Committee Dr. C. Crawford, Supervisor (Department of Mechanical Engineering, UVic) Dr. Jonn Axsen, Co-Supervisor (School of Resource and Environmental Management, SFU) Dr. Andrew Rowe, Committee member (Department of Mechanical Engineering, UVic) ii Abstract Heavy-duty trucks (HDTs) are vital in delivering products to the consumers around the world and help maintain the quality of life. However, they are heavily depending on fossil diesel use, which causing global climate change as well as local air pollutions. Although they represent a small percentage of vehicle population, they emit more than 30% of GHGs in road transportation or 5% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Furthermore, GHG emissions from this sector are expected to steadily grow due to economic growth, globalization, industrialization, online shopping, and fast delivery expectations. This study was focused on the Canadian province of British Columbia (BC) as a case study where HDTs are responsible for more than 4% of total provincial GHGs.

Four key findings have been identified by the E-Truck Task Force as barriers currently affecting the growth and viability of E-Truck sales; 1) high incremental cost, 2) poor vehicle quality and support from supplier(s), 3) unexpected costs and energy planning with infrastructure, and 4) reduced operation in extreme climates. The E-Truck Task Force developed a set of action-oriented recommendations for overcoming each barrier. 1. E-Truck Task Force Background 1.1 Key Findings from 2012 E-TTF Report CALSTART’s E-Truck Task Force (E-TTF) was originally created in 2011 to help understand, support and expand the production and successful deployment and use of plug-in electric trucks and buses. CALSTART published E-Truck Task Force Findings and Recommendations in 2012 based on a year-long research and industry engagement process. In that report CALSTART outlined the best use profiles for successful E-Truck deployment, provided a business case calculator for fleets, highlighted early adopter user experience, developed an infrastructure planning guide, and then established industry recommendations of actions required to speed market success.
