White Paper

In this white paper researchers discuss how truck eco-driving may provide economic or other incentives to drivers while reducing fuel consumption.

This research aims to assess the goals and effectiveness of the fees and taxes on transportation network company (TNC) platforms in achieving some of policy objectives, such as traffic and emissions mitigation, as well as revenue generation.

This white paper evaluates the feasibility of solar-powered bike paths in California, integrating renewable energy generation with sustainable transportation. Drawing on global case studies—including Germany’s solar cycle path roofing project, the Netherlands’ SolaRoad, and South Korea’s solar-integrated bike path—the study highlights the environmental, economic, and technical benefits of these systems.

The authors of this white paper argue that to achieve carbon reduction goals for 2040 and 2050, plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) policy must be worldwide and involve multi-decade policy programs.

This white paper reviews previous studies on prospects for reducing CO2 emissions from trucks.

This the research discusses a number of efficiency improvement strategies for the California freight sector.

This paper assesses the potential utility of feebates for shaping the US light-duty vehicle market. The analysis shows revenue-neutral incentive systems for encouraging zero-emission vehicles are possible and can be effective.

This paper reviews and assesses feebate design types, issues, and implementation strategies in France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Effective feebate design can help accelerate the zero-emission vehicle transition commensurate with international climate goals.

This report presents the implementation of new design method developed using mechanistic-empirical design approach by University of California Pavement Research Center through building two test sections.

This project aims to assess the current and future performance and costs of battery electric trucking, through reviewing key recent studies in the U.S. and presenting a detailed comparison of their cost modeling scope and coverage.
