| Tiivistelmä: | Concerns about energy security and climate change have increased legislators' interest in reducing gasoline consumption by increasing corporate average fuel-economy (CAFE) standards. Using a simulation model and cost estimates for anticipated fuel-economy technologies, the authors estimate annual costs of reducing long-run gasoline consumption by 10% via a 3.8 miles per gallon increase in the standards, and the potential cost savings from allowing manufacturers to buy and sell fuel-economy credits. Maximum gasoline saving would be realized only after all existing vehicles were replaced, or 14 years in this model. |
