SPEED-EMISSION/ENERGY CONSUMPTION CURVES FOR ULTRA-LOW EMISSION VEHICLES AND NON-FUEL OPERATING COSTS FOR ALL VEHICLES

Summary

The UK Department for Transport faced the challenge of updating its road transport policy modelling tools with accurate data for Ultra-Low Emission Vehicles (ULEVs) as the national fleet evolves. This report details the approach taken to develop updated speed-emission/energy consumption curves and non-fuel operating costs for various ULEV types, leveraging a more substantial European evidence base. The study's findings provide more robust and up-to-date inputs for the National Transport Model and Transport Analysis Guidance, replacing older, less certain estimates, and are recommended for immediate implementation.
