Abstract:

The Energy Policy Act (EPACT) has a goal of replacing ten percent of

transportation petroleum fuel with alternative fuels and replacement fuels by

the year 2000, and 30 percent by 2010. Sections 501 and 507 of EPACT encourage

and mandate use of alternative fueled vehicles (AFVs) in fleet applications.

In particular, Section 501 mandates that certain percentages of new light-duty

vehicles (LDVs) acquired by alternative fuel providers be AFVs. The first step

in estimating the effects of these mandates entails identifying affected of

Section 501. This assessment concludes that a limited number of companies in

the methanol, ethanol, propane, and hydrogen industries are likely to be

covered by this mandate. On the other hand, many of the large crude oil

producers, petroleum refiners, natural gas producers and transporters, and

natural gas and electric utilities are likely to be subject to this mandate.
