Key characteristics of relevant SAF pathways in the United States
Several U.S. states have recently implemented or are considering policies to encourage the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). While existing pathways can deliver significant reductions, their limited supply covers only a fraction of U.S. jet fuel consumption. This ICCT visual shows the most promising candidates for decarbonizing aviation. Read more in SAF policy […]
Pave the way to India’s sustainable mobility goals with incentives for cars in PM E-DRIVE
The PM E-DRIVE scheme will do a lot to support India’s EV transition, but with electric cars thus far excluded from subsidies, this blog highlights why including them could help in achieving India’s goals for sustainable transport.

Electric Trucks: India’s Road to Net Zero
Trucks in India contribute to 50% of on road vehicle pollution but they make up only 3% of vehicle population.
Facilitating electric bus adoption by private bus operators across India
The PM Electric Drive Revolution (PM E-DRIVE) scheme supports EV adoption in India’s public transport, but its exclusion of private bus operators—who run 93% of buses—raises concerns about scaling electric mobility, highlighting the need for policy changes.
Establishing an emission control area for ships in the North Atlantic Ocean could prevent several thousand premature deaths through 2050
Berlin, 12 November 2024 – A new study by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) finds that establishing an emission control area (ECA)—a designated maritime region where stricter regulations are enforced to prevent, reduce, and control air pollution from ships—in the North Atlantic would have significant environmental and public health benefits. The study follows […]
The North Atlantic Emission Control Area and other established and recently approved emission control areas
Figure. The North Atlantic Emission Control Area and other established and recently approved emission control areas This study expands our previous evaluation of potential shipping emissions reductions in the proposed AtlECA by providing an assessment of the health and environmental benefits under different scenarios based on fuel mix and compliance technology assumptions. The results of […]
Emissions reduction and benefits of the first 3,825 electric buses under PM-eBus Sewa
India’s PM-eBus Sewa scheme aims to deploy 10,000 electric buses across 100 cities and this blog analyzes the greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions avoided by the first batch of electric buses to be deployed, when compared with diesel buses.
Study finds real-world emissions from diesel pickup trucks in the United States are higher than regulatory limits
(October 31, 2024) Washington, DC – A new report from The Real Urban Emissions (TRUE) Initiative which analyzed more than 360,000 data samples from Virginia and Colorado found that the impact of diesel pickup trucks on emissions in the United States is significant. Truck models from Ford, Ram, GMC, and Chevrolet are emitting on average […]
