A Low Carbon Fuel Standard: In Brief
As part of the congressional deliberations on addressing climate change, Congress may consider policy options for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transportation sector. One of the leading contributors to the U.S. GHG emission profile in 2019 was carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from fossil fuel combustion by the transportation sector (e.g., gasoline and diesel … [Read more...] about A Low Carbon Fuel Standard: In Brief
Carbon-Free Shipping: All-Electric Powertrain Tugboats Powered By Battery and Hydrogen Fuel Cell
The maritime industry is in search of economically viable technology solutions to enable carbon-free shipping. Tugboats, the workhorses and unsung heroes of port industry, represent the sweet spot for concept testing and early adoption of all-electric powertrain powered by battery and hydrogen fuel cell for a number of reasons: - Tugboats are relatively small and multi-purpose … [Read more...] about Carbon-Free Shipping: All-Electric Powertrain Tugboats Powered By Battery and Hydrogen Fuel Cell
