Our new study on plug-in hybrid #ElectricVehicle usage is out now (@TheICCT & @FraunhoferISI)! Data from over 100,000 PHEV from China, Europe, & the US. Key results:
1. fuel consumption and co2 emissions two to four times higher than test cycle Image
2. Real world share of electric driving (utility factor UF) is only half the value from test cycles: Image
3. PHEVs are not charged every day.
4. PHEVs show high annual mileage and many long-distance trips.
5. PHEVs electrify many kilometers per year.
6. Lower combustion engine power and higher range reduce fuel consumption & CO2 emissions.
Full study: theicct.org/publications/p…

What is the future role of #hydrogen in road transport?
In a new comment in @NatureElectron I argue, that hydrogen is unlikely to play a major
role in sustainable road transport.
A thread on the arguments [1/n]

1. Cars: Almost all car manufacturers gave up on fuel cell passenger cars as fast charging and cheap batteries make long-distance driving feasible with battery electric vehicles.
2. Road freight is more tricky: Depending on load and daily or annual driving distance, current battery electric trucks cannot cover all road freight transport needs.

Welche Politikmaßnahmen im Verkehr bringen wirklich starke CO2-Reduktion? Zu unserem neuen Paper in @NatureClimate gibt es eine deutsche Zusammenfassung als #policybrief:
isi.fraunhofer.de/content/dam/is… Image
Kernergebnisse:
– Ordnungsrecht kann aufgrund der hohen Wirksamkeit und politischen Akzeptanz eine führende Rolle spielen.
– Quoten für emissionsfreie Fahrzeuge, Quoten für CO2-arme Kraftstoffe und CO2-Flottengrenzwerte bieten großes CO2-Minderungspotenzial. Image
- Quoten für CO2-arme Kraftstoffe senden ein transformatives
Signal, auf alternative Kraftstoffe umzusteigen und senken die Gesamtemissionen für Personen- und Güterverkehr.
– Zweitens beschleunigt eine Quote für Nullemissionsfahrzeuge die Verbreitung von E-Fahrzeugen .
