A common misconception is that Teslas are the only electric vehicles (EVs) available. This leads to the perception that EVs are only accessible to the rich and should not be considered as a decarbonizing transportation solution...

ZEV mandates are a technology-forcing policy, encouraging automakers to produce cars with longer ranges, as vehicles sold with longer electric ranges earn more...

As someone who spends her waking hours working to accelerate the clean energy transition, I disagree strongly with critics who suggest that Washington Governor...

This report aims to represent potential energy futures in enough technical detail to be used as blueprints to develop a future of the Northwest’s choosing.

Upfront costs present a significant barrier to widespread Electric Vehicle (EV) adoption. EVs cost more than a comparably sized gas-powered car, although the...

Policy incentives encouraging people to drive electric vehicles (EVs) are increasing as policymakers tackle the challenge of reducing transportation emissions to address growing concerns about climate change.

The Clean Energy Transition Institute released Meeting the Challenge of Our Time: Pathways to a Clean Energy Future for the Northwest on June 5, 2019. This study is the first economy-wide analysis to examine decarbonization pathways...

Although an electric vehicle’s (EV) speed, quiet ride, and smooth handling make it highly enjoyable to drive, many potential drivers may avoid EVs because of concerns about EV battery capacity, ready availability of public charging stations...

The Clean Energy Transition Institute commissioned an economy-wide deep decarbonization pathways study to serve as a blueprint for how Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington might achieve a low-carbon, clean energy economy...

As the climate crisis grows, transportation sector emissions must be addressed. The transport sector in Washington and Oregon accounts for nearly half of all energy-related CO2 emissions.

The results of Meeting the Challenge of Our Time: Pathways to a Clean Energy Future for the Northwest demonstrate the feasibility of Northwest states to achieve deep decarbonization by mid-century, even if we postulate...

The scope of costs in "Meeting the Challenge of Our Time: Pathways to a Clean Energy Future in the Northwest" is limited to energy system costs, which represent the annual cost of producing, distributing, and consuming energy.
