Abstract:Since 1995, with funds from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Transportation Technologies (OTT), Argonne National Laboratory has been developing the Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Transportation (GREET) model. The model is intended to serve as an analytical tool for use by researchers and practitioners in estimating fuel-cycle energy use and emissions associated with alternative transportation fuels and advanced vehicle technologies. Argonne released the first version of the GREET model — GREET 1.0 — in June 1996. Since then, it has released a series of GREET versions with revisions, updates, and upgrades. In February 2000, the latest public version of the model — GREET 1.5a — was posted on Argonne’s Transportation Technology Research and Development Center (TTRDC) Web site (www.transportation.anl.gov/ttrdc/greet). Since the release of GREET 1.5a, Argonne has continued to expand and upgrade the GREET model. The new version — GREET 1.6 — includes additional pathways, a new way to simulate transportation of energy feedstocks and fuels, stochastic simulations of fuel pathways, and development of graphic user interfaces (GUIs) in Microsoft Visual Basic.
