Separate names with a comma.
Agree with you that diesel fuel costs more than RUG, which is a disincentive for diesels in the USA, but the price has actually narrowed to about...
Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF - as the urea solution is known in the U.S.) does not have any odor that I've noticed, although it is somewhat...
I agree that nocturnal decoupling generally results in stronger winds aloft due to less influence from surface friction. However, absent...
That's a non-issue with the current crop of clean diesels. Based on many studies, diesels with particle filters (DPF) totally eliminate BC (soot).
AG - you're absolutely correct...Tennessee is in the "Clean Air Interstate Rule" pact, and using average U.S. emissions wouldn't be valid for my...
Actually, I ran GREET1_2011 using the electric mix of my utility (>66% from coal) for the Passat TDI and Leaf. I used CARB certified...
It appears GREET includes at least emissions from drilling, according to this... "Your vehicle’s carbon footprint is more than just the...
The baseline gasser in GREET is assumed to get 24.81 mpg. Therefore, the default diesel gets 29.77 mpgge, the default HEV gets 34.73 mpgge, and...
Argonne National Laboratory has a pretty extensive list of publications that went into the development of the GREET model available at...
Since this is a well-to-wheels analysis, upstream emissions are considered. Diesel fuel (ULSD) is more efficient to produce according to GREET...
Yes, it's a complete well-to-wheels analysis.
By the way, manipulating GREET1_2011 at 100% electricity from coal yields GHG emissions of 581 g/mi, significantly higher than even the baseline...
Here's what I get for a generic "grid-independent SI HEV" (HEV) using current U.S. electric generation mix assumed in GREET... VOC - 0.199 g/mi...
According to Argonne National Laboratory's GREET model (Argonne GREET Model), the following are well-to-wheel emissions it calculates for a...
According to this article, diesel sales exceeded 50% market share in the UK in 2011.
That's generally true. However, diesel-cycle engines have been successfully run on natural gas with a small "pilot" injection of diesel fuel...
The Prius c has been emissions certified by CARB - http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/onroad/cert/pcldtmdv/2012/toyota_pc_a0140767_1d5_s2_hevge.pdf.
I agree. There have been studies which have shown that less than 10% of vehicles (old "high emitters") are responsible for over 50% of the...
F8L - sorry to hear about the ordeal you're currently going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Good luck with your results. Get...
Agree that a diesel vehicle would probably not be ideal in your situation. However, please don't base your perception of current diesel vehicles...
