Why the Urgency?
Promises•Low natural gas prices are creating alternative to high-carbon, coal-fired electricity generation
•Climate regulations could promote shift to cleaner power
•Uncertain gasoline prices are building consumer interest in alternatives
•Vehicle fuel economy standards are facilitated by vehicle electrification
Pitfalls•New petroleum resources are emerging worldwide
•Renewed investments in oil-fueled transportation are locking in
Forces Promoting and Suppressing PEVs are Building

Key Moment to Determine Future Carbon Balance of Liquid and Alternative Fuels

• Conventional oil is expected to plateau…but oil will not run out
• Economics and technology are redefining liquid hydrocarbon resources
• Not all oils are created equal
• The heavier the oil, the higher its imbedded and process carbon

• Higher oil prices will expand the volumes and types of oils in the marketplace
• Higher gasoline prices may not be sufficient to spur PEVs
Market-driven Unconventional Oil Upswing

Charging Onward…
FREEWAYThe “Freeway” scenario is based on pure market forces prevailing to create global competition in the future light-duty vehicle fleet
TOLLWAYThe “Tollway” scenario is based on a public policy-drivers that promote technological advances, infrastructure development, and market uptake

Cultivating PEV Vanguard Cities
![Page 11: Deborah Gordon Senior Associate, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace September 24, 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/5681367d550346895d9e0ac2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
PEV Policy Priorities
• Concerted efforts needed to move PEVs from emerging status to self-sustaining markets
• Federal policies necessary but not sufficient
• State and local policies necessary to expand PEVs
• Must engage motorists, local decision makers, and auto dealers
