Lifecycle Analysis Comparison of a Battery Electric Vehicle and a Conventional Gasoline Vehicle Kimberly Aguirre Luke Eisenhardt Christian Lim Brittany Nelson Alex Norring Peter Slowik Nancy Tu Advisor: Dr. Deepak Rajagopal Client: California Air Resources Board June 2012. 1. 1. Abstract California continues to be an environmental leader with the implementation of AB32. The California Air Resource Board (CARB) has enacted several programs to ensure the success of this groundbreaking bill. This study, in association with CARB, calculates the energy inputs and CO2 equivalents emissions of a conventional gasoline vehicle (CV), a hybrid vehicle, and a Battery Electric vehicle (BEV) to determine the Lifecycle environmental costs of each specific to California. A hybrid model's results were generated based off of a weighted-average of CV and BEV results, using of the Battery from the BEV data.
One possible method for creating a more sustainable society is by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, which is measured by decreasing CO2 equivalents. Targeting the transportation sector as a major emitter of carbon dioxide equivalents is a step in the right direction in regards to reducing emissions.
