Resumo(s)
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency introduced Carbon Dioxide emission standards for Light-Duty-Vehicles, accounting for emissions associated to electric vehicles for the first time. This affects the incentives of manufacturers like AUDI to comply with the regulations. The purpose of this work is to contribute to a better understanding of the environmental implications of such regulations measured by the estimated total emissions. Therefore, a sensitivity analysis with respect to the most influential parameters is performed. Further, this work provides an indication of the real world CO2 emission savings potential of the regulatory framework, by examining different manufacturer’s compliance strategies.
