Progress 10/01/16 to 09/30/17
Outputs Target Audience:Our target audience includes academics, policy-makers, business practitioners, environmental organizations. During the reporting period, we wrote a discussion paper based on our research Resources for the Future, a leading think tank in environmental and resource economics; and presented our research to Resources for the Future and at the UC Carbon and Climate Neutrality Summit. We discussed our research on renewable fuel policy in book chapter we wrote for a University of California systemwide report on Bending the Curve: 10 Scalable Solutions for Carbon Neutrality and Climate Stability. We have also written a report for the California Air Resources Board, an article for the California State Controller based on our research on renewable fuel policy, and a policy brief for the University of California Institute of Transportation Studies. We have presented our research to the California Air Resources Board as well as to regulators in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. We have also presented our research to the Biobased Industry Center Advisory Board; and at the Eighth Annual Berkeley Bioeconomy Conference. Our work on renewable fuel policy was cited in the media by Platts, Biodiesel Magazine, Green Car Congress, and the UC-Davis Institute of Transportation Studies. We have also been contacted by the Environmental Defense Fund and the Oil Price Information Service, both of whom were interested in learning more about our work on renewable fuel policy. Changes/Problems:
Nothing Reported
What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?This project has provided opportunities for training and professional development for my Ph.D. student, Gabriel Lade, with whom I have worked on this research. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?During the reporting period, we wrote a peer-reviewed journal article; a peer-reviewed book chapter for a University of California systemwide report on Bending the Curve: 10 Scalable Solutions for Carbon Neutrality and Climate Stability; a peer-reviewed book chapter for a book on Modelling, Dynamics, Optimization and Bioeconomics; and a Resources for the Future discussion paper. During the reporting period, we also presented our research Resources for the Future, a leading think tank in environmental and resource economics; and at the UC Carbon and Climate Neutrality Summit. We have also written a report for the California Air Resources Board, an article for the California State Controller based on our research on renewable fuel policy, and a policy brief for the University of California Institute of Transportation Studies. We have presented our research to the California Air Resources Board as well as to regulators in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. We have also presented our research to the Biobased Industry Center Advisory Board; at an invited paper session on renewable fuel policy at the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association Annual Meeting; at the Eighth Annual Berkeley Bioeconomy Conference; at the Northeast Workshop on Energy Policy and Environmental Economics at Dartmouth; and at the Stanford Institute for Theoretical Economics. Our work on renewable fuel policy was cited in the media by Platts, Biodiesel Magazine, Green Car Congress, and the UC-Davis Institute of Transportation Studies. We have also been contacted by the Environmental Defense Fund and the Oil Price Information Service, both of whom were interested in learning more about our work on renewable fuel policy. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?
Nothing Reported
Impacts What was accomplished under these goals?
Thus far, we have worked on analyzing the Low Carbon Fuel Standard and the Renewable Fuel Standard. During the reporting period, we wrote a peer-reviewed journal article; a peer-reviewed book chapter for a University of California systemwide report on Bending the Curve: 10 Scalable Solutions for Carbon Neutrality and Climate Stability; a peer-reviewed book chapter for a book on Modelling, Dynamics, Optimization and Bioeconomics; and a Resources for the Future discussion paper.
