TRB Webinar: Forecasting Zero Emission Vehicles Fleet Scenarios & Emissions Implications How will future vehicle Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) fleet scenarios affect emissions of criteria pollutants, mobile source air toxics, and greenhouse gases? TRB will conduct a webinar on Tuesday, June 30 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM that will discuss research on future vehicle fleet scenarios effect on emissions. Presenters will review literature and modeling analysis on U.S. ZEV adoption. The work provides insights encouraging the adoption of ZEVs such as electric or fuel cell vehicles with implications for state departments of transportation and metropolitan planning organizations seeking to make policy decisions to advance penetration of ZEVs into the light-duty vehicle fleet. Presenters will also discuss future research suggestions. This webinar draws on research from NCHRP Web-Only Document 274: Zero Emission Vehicles: Forecasting Fleet Scenarios and their Emissions Implications. Some registrants will need to pay $95 to attend this webinar. Sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information. Webinar agenda and presenters Introduction: Doug Eisinger, Sonoma Technology, Inc. Key findings from literature review, rationale for Market Acceptance of Advanced Automotive Technologies model, and future research suggestions: Adrienne Heller, WSP Guiding principles for development and selection of ZEV adoption analysis scenarios, modeled ZEV population increases, and implications of results: Garnet Erdakos, Sonoma Technology, Inc. Modeled ZEV population increases and emissions reductions: Shih Ying Chang (Changsy), Sonoma Technology, Inc. Question and answer session moderated by Zhenhong Lin, Oak Ridge National Laboratory The first 90 minutes of the webinar will be for presentations and the final 30 minutes will be reserved for audience questions. Learning Objectives At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to: Identify different ZEV adoption models in the U.S. Discuss how different fleet scenarios will effect emissions Professional Development Hour Information Professional engineers (PEs) who register and attend the entire webinar as an individual will be awarded 2 Professional Development Hours (PDHs).
