Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2015 12:16:30 -0700 Subject: arbcombo -- ARB report Draft Heavy-Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment: Overview available now From: rding@arb.ca.gov The Air Resources Board (ARB) report Draft Heavy-Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment: Overview (Draft Overview): http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/report.htm has been posted and is available for public comment. This document provides an overview and status update on the heavy duty technology and fuels available. To view or submit comments on the Draft Overview please go to: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/techreport/comments.htm Contact: Renee Littaua (916) 324-6429 or rlittaua@arb.ca.gov Background Overview California needs a 90 percent reduction in NOx emissions by 2031, and an 80 percent reduction in GHG emissions below 1990 levels by 2050 to meet air quality and climate targets. Significant improvements in efficiency and the use of renewable fuels are also needed to meet the Governor’s 50 percent petroleum reduction target by 2030, and continued reductions in diesel PM and air toxics are necessary to protect public health. Achieving each of these goals will require a transition to zero and near-zero emission technologies in all mobile sources. The Draft Overview highlights technology and fuels that could help us achieve those goals, and covers several heavy-duty technology sectors, including: • trucks and buses • transport refrigeration units • locomotives • fuels – both conventional and alternative fuels • ocean-going vessels • commercial harbor craft (SCAQMD lead) • cargo handling equipment, and • aviation – including aircraft and ground support equipment This technology assessment is on-going and focuses not only on zero and near-zero emission technologies that will ultimately be necessary to meet long-term air quality and climate goals, but also on improvements to conventional technologies and gains in vehicle and freight system operational efficiency that could provide substantial near-term emissions reductions and help facilitate the transition to zero and near-zero emission technologies. The Draft Overview is now posted. More detailed draft assessments for each of the sectors listed above will be posted in 2015, as the drafts are completed. The draft sector reports will evaluate how each technology works, the fuels necessary to power each technology, as well as its state of market readiness, costs, environmental benefits, technology performance, and current deployment challenges. Additional background information on the Heavy Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment effort can be found here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/tech.htm Related Work The technology and fuels assessment draft overview and draft sector reports will help inform a number of on-going state efforts, including ARB’s Sustainable Freight Strategy.

The Action Plan will include specific recommendations, actions, investments, and milestones agencies can consider developing and build a sustainable freight transportation system that will demonstrate California’s private and public leadership in advancing statewide and national freight priorities, objectives, and goals, and accomplishing statewide goals, such as the targets identified in the Executive Order. The State will establish clear targets for improving freight efficiency and transitioning to zero-emission technologies in the freight transport system, while continuing to support California’s economy. The Action Plan will identify State policies, programs, and investments that can achieve those targets. The State will also initiate work on identifying corridor level freight pilot projects within the State’s primary trade corridors that achieve the targets set by the Executive Order by integrating advanced technologies, alternative fuels, freight and fuel infrastructure, and local economic development opportunities.
