Breaking Down the Future of Low Carbon Fuel Standards and the Power of Modeling with Colin Murphy

Breaking Down the Future of Low Carbon Fuel Standards and the Power of Modeling with Colin Murphy

In this episode of The Charge Cycle, we’re joined by Colin Murphy, Co-Director of the Low Carbon Fuel Policy Research Initiative at UC Davis, to discuss the complexities and future of low carbon fuel standards (LCFS). Some of the topics we cover include:  • The evolution of low carbon fuel policies and their impact on transportation.  • Challenges in transitioning to EVs and how battery technology are overperforming expectations.  • The role of renewable diesel and biofuels in decarbonizing the transportation sector.  • Innovative solutions and policy adjustments needed to achieve climate goals. 🔗 Learn more about the Low Carbon Fuel Policy Research Initiative: lowcarbonfuel.ucdavis.edu 🔗 Follow Colin Murphy on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cwmurphy/ #LowCarbonFuels #ElectricVehicles #Sustainability #CleanTransportation #Podcast #TheChargeCycle
