Greet 1.5: transportation fuel-cycle model. Vol. 1. methodology, development, use, and results

摘要

This report is a revision to a previous Argonne National Laboratory report entitled GREET 1.0-Transportation Fuel Cycles Model: Methodology and Use (dated June 1996). The 1996 report documented the methodologies, key assumptions, and results of the development and use of the first version of the Greenhouse Gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy Use in Transportation (GREET) fuel-cycle model developed at Argonne National Laboratory. Since then, the GREET 1.0 model has been significantly expanded and improved. The model has evolved into three modules (each comprising a series of versions): the first module covers fuel-cycle energy and emissions of passenger cars and light-duty trucks (GREET 1.1, GREET 1.2, etc.); the second cover vehicle-cycle energy and emissions of passenger cars and light-duty trucks (GREET 2.1, GREET 2.2, etc.); and the third module covers fuel-cycle energy and emissions of heavy-duty truck (gross vehicle weight over 8,500 pounds) GREET 3.1, GREET 3.2, etc.
