trucks

Researchers at the University of California, Davis reviewed 10 recent studies of the total cost of ownership of battery-electric trucks, now and in the future, compared to a baseline diesel truck to derive general findings that are robust across all the studies.

The Total Cost of Ownership Spreadsheet Tool (TCOST) is a Microsoft Excel-based calculator that simplifies and integrates the main functions, data, and outputs of pre-existing models (MOVES-Matrix and the GREET Model) and other external sources of economic data.

This report presents the results of a project to develop a truck vehicle/fuel decision choice model for California and to use that model to make initial projections of truck sales by technology out to 2050.

This policy brief summarizes findings from two projects that simulated traffic patterns along a section of Interstate 710 near the Ports of Long Beach/Los Angeles, and the use of variable speed limit and lane change control systems to evaluate the potential traffic impacts of these systems.
