the emissions of"zero emission" vehicles is of importance for Oregon's planners and
policy makers. An increase in electricity generation caused by the electricity required for
zero-emissions hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will result in an increase in greenhouse gas
emissions ifrenewable energy is not installed to meet hydrogen fuel cell needs. What are
the renewable energy implications for Oregon planners to consider for meeting future fuel
cell zero emission vehicle (ZEV) needs?
Work done in Iceland can serve as an example for Oregon's need for renewable
energy to meet ZEV needs. Icelandic data about hydrogen generation and the renewable
energy requirements necessary for ZEVs at the Gtj6thaIs hydrogen fueling station set a
benchmark for Oregon planners to consider when figuring the impact of ZEVs. / Committee in Charge:
