arbcombo -- Chairs Lecture: Pathways to Deep Decarbonization in the United States
Jim Williams, Ph.D.
Energy and Environmental Economics (E3)
Wednesday, May 13, 2015 1:30 pm, PDT (WEBCAST)
Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building
1001 I Street, Sacramento, California
Is it possible to deeply reduce carbon emissions in the United
States while maintaining a vigorous economy?
Dr. Jim Williams will present results from a recent study by
Energy and Environmental Economics (E3), Lawrence Berkeley
National Laboratory, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
that assesses the technical and economic feasibility of reducing
US greenhouse gas emissions 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. It is
based on detailed sector by sector, region by region, year by
year analysis of the infrastructure changes, technology
requirements, and costs of a low carbon transition. The work was
sponsored by the Deep Decarbonization Pathways Project, an
international collaboration of research teams from the 15 largest
GHG emitting nations, who are developing long-term scenarios for
decarbonization in their own countries.
This project aims to bring momentum to the climate dialogue by
providing decision makers a more concrete understanding of what
limiting global warming to 2 degrees Celsius would mean for their
countries, states, and businesses. In parallel with the US
analysis, Dr. Williams and the E3 team used a similar modeling
framework to evaluate options for 2030 GHG emission targets for
California. For more go to the announcement at:

arbcombo -- Energy Efficiency & Co-Benefits Assessment - Electricity Generation Sector Public Report available at noon on April 24
Electricity Generation Sector Public Report will be available at
noon on April 24, 2015, on the following website:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/energyaudits/publicreports.htm
ARB staff has developed five separate Public Reports compiling
the information provided by the facilities subject to the Energy
Efficiency and Co-Benefits Assessment of Large Industrial
Facilities Regulation (EEA Regulation). The EEA Public Reports
provide a sector-wide and facility-specific summary of the energy
efficiency improvement projects identified by all of the
reporting facilities. In addition, information on the estimated
greenhouse gas, criteria pollutant, and toxics pollutant emission
reductions and costs, as reported by the facilities, is included.
The data presented in the reports are aggregated in a manner to
be consistent with the public disclosure requirements under
California Code of Regulations (CCR) §95610.
The release of the EEA Public Reports is Phase 1 of a multi-phase
program. More information on this multi-phase program is
provided on the website above. The Electricity Generation Sector
Public Report, the fifth and final of the five reports to be
released, will be available at the website above at noon on
Friday, April 24, 2015. The four previously released sector
public reports are available on the EEA website provided above.
ARB staff held a stakeholder meeting on July 9, 2013, to discuss
the Refinery Sector Public Report. A stakeholder meeting to
discuss the remaining reports will be scheduled for later this
year, with a tentative date of Tuesday, June 30, 2015.
For more information regarding this advisory or the EEA
Regulation, please visit our web site at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/energyaudits/energyaudits.htm or contact
Ms. Cherie Rainforth at 916.327.7213, or via e-mail at
crainfor@arb.ca.gov
Background:
On July 22, 2010, the Air Resources Board (ARB) approved the
Energy Efficiency and Co-Benefit Assessment of Large Industrial
Facilities (EEA Regulation). The regulation required the largest
industrial sources in California to conduct a one-time assessment
of fuel and energy consumption, and emissions of greenhouse gas,
criteria pollutants, and toxic air contaminants. Affected
facilities were also required to identify potential improvements
in equipment, processes, or systems that could result in energy
savings.

arbcombo -- ARB Research Seminar: Technical Analysis of Vehicle Load-Reduction Potential for Advanced Clean Cars
Advanced Clean Cars".
Greg Pannone, President
CT-ENERGY, LLC
Tuesday, May 5, 2015 1:30 pm, PDT (WEBCAST)
Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building
1001 I Street, Sacramento, California
In addition to strict fuel and emission standards, reducing
greenhouse gas emissions will require passenger cars and
light-duty trucks to have improved aerodynamics, fuel-efficient
tires, and reduced weight. In support of the California Air
Resources Board's Advanced Clean Cars program, these technologies
were assessed for their potential in reducing carbon dioxide
(CO₂) emissions and increasing fuel economy in future
passenger vehicles. Model year 2014 vehicles were studied to
determine the extent to which these load reducing technologies
have already been applied. Using manufacturer-reported
information, the aerodynamic drag and tire rolling resistance
were estimated for each vehicle model. Vehicle curb weight was
combined with other vehicle specifications to evaluate the weight
of each vehicle. For more go to the announcement at:

and will not include a discussion of that regulation.
If you have questions regarding the symposium, please contact
Krista Fregoso at (916) 445-5035 or krista.fregoso@arb.ca.gov.
Background: ARB staff is working jointly with the staff of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on the next phase
of greenhouse gas emission standards for medium- and heavy-duty
vehicles, referred to as Phase 2. These standards are expected
to build on the improvements in engine and vehicle efficiency
required by the Phase 1 greenhouse gas emission standards, and
provide a significant opportunity to achieve further greenhouse
gas reductions for 2018 and later model-year heavy-duty vehicles,
including trailers.
U.S. EPA and NHTSA are planning to issue a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for the Phase 2 standards in the spring of 2015 and a
final rule in the spring of 2016. Upon federal adoption of the
Phase 2 standards, ARB staff plans to present a proposed
California Phase 2 program to the Board, most likely in late 2016
or 2017.

greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions target to inform policy setting
and program development. The California Air Resources Board,
California Energy Commission, California Public Utilities
Commission, and the California Independent System Operator
commissioned Energy and Environmental Economics (E3) to evaluate
the feasibility and cost of a range of potential 2030 targets
along the way to the State's goal of reducing GHG emissions to
80% below 1990 levels by 2050.
E3 conducted the analysis, with support from Lawrence Berkeley
National Laboratory (LBNL), using the E3 California PATHWAYS
model. Enhanced specifically for this study, the model features
detailed representations of the buildings, industry,
transportation, and electricity sectors, including hourly
electricity supply and demand. Also represented, but with less
detail, are non-energy GHG emissions and energy demand from the
water sector and the agriculture sector.
E3 will present the results of the study in a webinar:
Date: April 10, 2015
Time: 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM Pacific Time

Background
California's freight transportation system is a multi-modal
system designed to move freight across the State, the nation, and
the globe. The freight system is a critical part of our economy
and a significant contributor to our air quality concerns. The
purpose of the Sustainable Freight: Pathways to Zero and
Near-Zero Emissions Discussion Draft is to describe ARB's vision
and levers to achieve a more efficient, cleaner freight system.
The document identifies ARB's immediate actions and near-term
actions to reduce health impacts near freight hubs and regional
pollution, as well as ARB's long-term vision to transition to a
system that relies on zero and near-zero emission equipment.

arbcombo -- ARB report Draft Heavy-Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment: Overview available now
and Fuels Assessment: Overview (Draft Overview):
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/report.htm has been posted and
is available for public comment. This document provides an
overview and status update on the heavy duty technology and fuels
available.

Background
Overview
California needs a 90 percent reduction in NOx emissions by 2031,
and an 80 percent reduction in GHG emissions below 1990 levels by
2050 to meet air quality and climate targets. Significant
improvements in efficiency and the use of renewable fuels are
also needed to meet the Governor's 50 percent petroleum reduction
target by 2030, and continued reductions in diesel PM and air
toxics are necessary to protect public health. Achieving each of
these goals will require a transition to zero and near-zero
emission technologies in all mobile sources.
The Draft Overview highlights technology and fuels that could
help us achieve those goals, and covers several heavy-duty
technology sectors, including:
• trucks and buses
• transport refrigeration units
• locomotives
• fuels – both conventional and alternative fuels
• ocean-going vessels
• commercial harbor craft (SCAQMD lead)
• cargo handling equipment, and
• aviation – including aircraft and ground support equipment
This technology assessment is on-going and focuses not only on
zero and near-zero emission technologies that will ultimately be
necessary to meet long-term air quality and climate goals, but
also on improvements to conventional technologies and gains in
vehicle and freight system operational efficiency that could
provide substantial near-term emissions reductions and help
facilitate the transition to zero and near-zero emission
technologies.
The Draft Overview is now posted. More detailed draft
assessments for each of the sectors listed above will be posted
in 2015, as the drafts are completed. The draft sector reports
will evaluate how each technology works, the fuels necessary to
power each technology, as well as its state of market readiness,
costs, environmental benefits, technology performance, and
current deployment challenges. Additional background information
on the Heavy Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment effort can be
found here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/tech.htm

The technology and fuels assessment draft overview and draft
sector reports will help inform a number of on-going state
efforts, including ARB's Sustainable Freight Strategy. More
