| Summary: | This energy environment review has two
parts. The first addresses greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
and examines energy consumption patterns across key economic
sectors with a view to forecasting future energy demand and
supply, and associated emissions of pollutants (both local
and global pollutants but focusing on GHGs. Several
energy-pricing instruments for reducing GHG emissions are
then examined in terms of their impact on energy consumption
and resulting emissions as well as their macroeconomic and
socioeconomic consequences. the second part targets urban
air pollution ariding from transport emissions and, more
specifically, gasoline-fueled vehicles. It examines vehicle
fleet characteristics in terms of vehicle technology,
vehicle category, age, service and engine size, and
relations to emissions. It reviews the history of the
vehicle inspection and maintenance (I/M) program in Mexico
City to distill lessons, and analyzes the emissions data
collected in then I/M program. It studies the link between
fuel quality and vehicle performance , and discusses the
ramifications of the proposed gasoline specifications in the
context of the status of the refining sector in Mexico, the
effects of fuel quality development in North America, and
likely future vehicle emissions regulations in Mexico. |
