This article summarises Phase 1 of a new research project being undertaken by Concawe to investigate potential technological, operational and energy pathways to reduce emissions from the maritime transport sector towards 2050. Phase 1 of the project provides the...
A Concawe study examined several options for achieving a low-carbon transport system in the EU by 2050. Significantly, a mass EV adoption scenario and a low-carbon fuels scenario both achieve similar reductions in total parc greenhouse gas emissions, at similar...
Improvements in vehicle efficiency will be a key factor in ensuring that liquid fuels remain a vital partner in the future of road transport. This article looks at the role of high-octane petrol (HOP) in improving engine efficiency, and summarises the findings of a...
Concawe’s modelling and vehicle testing study shows that fuels and vehicles can be optimised together to take advantage of higher-RON fuels, and achieve significant improvements in efficiency and CO2 emissions.
This article summarises the results of two Concawe studies which address the potential for refineries to contribute to a future low-carbon economy. Full details of the studies are presented in Concawe reports 8/19 and 9/19, published in 2019.
