Greenhouse Gas Emission Vehicle Study

Several state corn organizations have partnered to study battery electric vehicles amid greenhouse gas emission reduction mandates, ethanol offers a solution. Colorado Corn Producers Council Executive Director, Nick Colglazier,

“We partnered with Renewable Fuels Association and a lot of other corn states to fund this project where we took a plug in hybrid electric vehicle, so the pH EV’s, and we turned it into a ph EFFV, which is a plug in hybrid electric flex fuel vehicle. So the idea here is that this can now utilize e 85 fuel inside of it, which most cars can't, you have to have a special car that can do that. So we turned it into a Flex View vehicle. Reductions in the lifestyle greenhouse gas emissions that put out rival or even outperform the greenhouse gas reductions that are available with a battery electric vehicle. “

This study provided integral findings in favor of this project

“And now that's a huge finding, because if the goal of battery electric vehicles are to reduce carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emissions, you've got a winner right here that is not just a battery electric vehicle, but still uses, utilizes internal combustion engine technology, which is very familiar, and it's something that consumers still want, because it provides the comfort of what they know,” along with new technology, according to Colglazier
