Abstract
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
• Road transport of Japan contributed 15.9% of the nation’s CO2 emissions in 2022 and 44.3% of CO2 emissions from the road transport are generated by freight trucks
• The New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) designed a roadmap for the introduction of FCTs into the vehicle fleet
• Prototype FCTs have been designed and produced by Toyota and Hino Motors
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
• Examines economic and environmental benefits of a transition to FCTs for 2025-2060.
• Examines the life-cycle GHG emissions reduction
• Examines the differential total cost of FCTs compared with ICETs
• Examines the marginal cost of the life-cycle GHG emissions reduction
