Costs and CO2 emissions reduction benefits of potential phase 3 fuel consumption standards for India’s passenger vehicles
Evaluates prospective phase 3 fuel consumption standards for the passenger car segment in India by performing cost and efficiency analyses and using the results to generate cost curves that elucidate the incremental direct manufacturing costs.
Integrating refrigerants with low global warming potential into India’s light vehicle fuel efficiency standards
Analyzes potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from using alternative refrigerants with low global warming potential and more efficient air conditioning systems in vehicles in India; also estimates the associated costs and considers how regulations could incentivize their use.
The potential of 48V hybrids in India’s light-duty vehicle market
Estimates the direct manufacturing costs and CO2 reduction potential of 48V hybrid systems with different power trains in India and also analyzes the impact of electric motor size.
