Federal Fleet Conversion Study: Comparing Costs and Emissions of EVs and Ethanol

This law mandates the government to conduct a detailed cost analysis for replacing federal light-duty vehicles with either electric vehicles or flex-fuel ethanol vehicles (E85). The study must include the necessary infrastructure costs, such as charging stations or E85 fueling points nationwide. These studies will provide public data on the financial and environmental impacts of different transportation technologies.
Key points
The US government must publicly compare the costs of converting the federal vehicle fleet to electric vehicles versus ethanol-capable vehicles.
The analysis will cover vehicle purchase prices and the nationwide infrastructure costs required for charging or E85 fueling.
The Department of Energy will analyze the total lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions for gasoline, electric, and ethanol vehicles.
