Implementing Agreement for Advanced Motor Fuels Sample Clauses

Implementing Agreement for Advanced Motor Fuels. The transport sector is facing many challenges. Today it is almost totally dependent on fuels derived from crude oil. The number of vehicles around the world is increasing rapidly — and so are their environmental impacts and the use of energy for transport. Whereas many other sectors of society have been able to stabilize or cut carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, transport- related CO2 emissions have tended to increase in both relative and absolute terms. At the same time, new possibilities are opening up. The array of options is broadening, not narrowing. This is true for both fuel and vehicle technology options. We are closer than ever to wide-scale use of alternative fuels. However, the increasing number of options makes decision making harder. This is true for private consumers, fleet operators, communities, and governments. One of most important tasks of AMF is to provide decision makers at all levels with unbiased and solid data on the performance and potential of various options. The AMF must always account for the fact that the properties of commercial fuels and the sophistication of various vehicles vary significantly among the different regions of the world. All candidate future fuels face obstacles and barriers (bottlenecks) that might be either unique to a given fuel or shared with other fuels (Figure 1). Fuel C

This is true for private consumers, fleet operators, communities, and governments. One of most important tasks at Advanced Motor Fuels (AMF) is to provide decision makers at all levels with unbiased and solid data on the performance and potential of various options. We should note that AMF must always take note of the fact that the properties of commercial fuel and the sophistication of vehicles vary significantly among different regions of the world. All candidate future fuels face obstacles and barriers (bottlenecks) that might be either unique to a given fuel or shared with other fuels (Figure 1). The body of knowledge in the AMF contributed by the national delegates and experts helps to point out the obstacles and identify the types of research and development needed to eliminate and/or overcome those obstacles. Fuel C Fuel B  Fuel A Making policies for implementing the use of alternative fuels requires that the desirable attributes of the various fuels be prioritized and that the priorities be balanced against practical realities with regard to costs and benefits. Figure 1 illustrates the process of defining the priorities, along with the barriers (or bottlenecks).
