This document consists of 13 papers that explore modeling regional transportation demand in China and the impacts of a national carbon policy; the effects of the built environment on gasoline consumption in a developing megacity; consumer choice of E85 denatured ethanol fuel blend; the economic and greenhouse gas impacts of a national low carbon fuel standard; and daily travel and carbon dioxide emissions from passenger transportation.This TRR also summarizes the Oregon statewide 2050 vision for greenhouse gas emission reduction; charging behavior and its impacts on electric vehicle miles traveled; the impacts of charging infrastructure deployment on the feasibility of battery electric vehicles; and the financial viability and fueling costs of workplace charging.In addition, this TRR examines optimizing the use of electric vehicles in a regional car rental fleet; ways to estimate energy consumption on the basis of microscopic driving parameters for electric vehicles; an assessment of level 1 and level 2 electric vehicle charging efficiencies; and a user equilibrium-based location model of rapid charging stations for electric vehicles with batteries that have different states of charge.
