According to the US EPA, one of the largest contributors to GHG emissions in the U.S. is the transportation sector (29%). Magnifying this problem, it is projected that transportation fuel demand will continue to grow as the global population increases over time.
To help mitigate increases in transportation emissions, an increasing number of North American jurisdictions are turning to compliance market-based mechanisms. These compliance instruments have several names “Low Carbon Fuel Standards", “Clean Fuel Standards" or “Clean Fuel Programs" (CFPs), but all follow the same general principle: incentivize the reduction of carbon embedded in fuels used for transportation over time.
In this webinar, our experts discussed Clean Fuel Programs, taking a closer look at the Washington Clean Fuel Standard and explored how these programs can create revenue streams while helping to decarbonize transportation.
In this webinar, we addressed the following:
