Project Title: Accounting for Electric Vehicles in Air Quality Conformity URL: http://tti.tamu.edu/documents/0-6763-1.pdf 16. Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) obtain at least a part of the energy required for their propulsion from electricity. The market for EVs, including hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery electric vehicles continues to grow, as many new and affordable models have become available in recent years. The proliferation of EVs in the vehicle fleet has implications for energy use and emissions. The mobile source (vehicle exhaust) emissions component is of particular relevance to transportation agencies, especially those in nonattainment and attainment maintenance areas that need to meet transportation conformity requirements. This report presents a framework to incorporate EVs into mobile source emissions estimations. The framework uses the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES) model. It integrates EV driving characteristics, emissions rates, and market penetration information into a MOVES- based emissions inventory analysis. Vehicle activity data collection and drive schedule development, along with in-use emissions measurements, were conducted for a sample of EVs in Texas. Additionally, market penetration scenarios were developed using a consumer choice model. The collected data and market penetration scenarios were then used in the framework to conduct a pilot application for a large county in Texas. The pilot application demonstrated successful use of the framework and showed that including EVs in emissions analyses can potentially have an impact on the overall analysis results specifically for future years. 17.

  • Non-Registered Motorised Vehicles
    Submission No 6 NON-REGISTERED MOTORISED VEHICLES Name: Mr Mark Walker Date Received: 10/03/2013 Mr Greg Aplin MP Chair Joint Standing Committee on Road Safety NSW Parliament 10/03/2013 Re: Inquiry into Non‐registered motorised vehicles Dear Sir Upon becoming aware of the Committee’s Inquiry via an advertisement calling for submissions in the SMH (9‐ 10 Mar 2013), I resolved to make the Committee aware of my concerns in this regard. As I understand it from current road and vehicle regulations: ‐ Mobility scooters are not allowed to travel on public roads, are limited to 10km/h and 110kg unladen mass, but otherwise are not regulated ‐ Electrically‐assisted pedal‐powered bicycles (ADR category AB) are limited to 200W motors, but are otherwise unregulated ‐ ICE‐assisted* pedal‐powered bicycles are limited to 50cc capacity, must comply with certain noise limits, but are otherwise unregulated ‐ Segways are currently banned ‐ Mopeds (being motorised pedal‐assist cycles) must be registered as for ‘motorcycles’ whether electric or ICE‐powered ‐ Quad bikes, pitbikes and other similar small‐capacity motorised vehicles (like buggys) are restricted to ‘offroad recreational vehicle’ licensing for use in designated areas (such as Stockton Beach) but are otherwise unable to be registered or driven on roads and in public areas due to non‐compliance with ADRs. * ICE – Internal Combustion Engine As the Committee’s focus in its terms of reference is ‘usage’ and ‘impact on road safety’ perhaps the latter needs to be clarified, especially in regard to those vehicles specifically designed and only ‘allowed’ to be used ‘off‐road’.
