Institute of Transportation Studies, Research Reports, Working Papers, Proceedings from Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Berkeley

Abstract: The Highway Electrification and Automation Technologies Regional Impacts Analysis Project (HE&A) addressed the transportation-related problems of freeway congestion, air pollution, and dependence on fossil fuels in southern California. The impacts of roadway electrification and highway automation were investigated to determine to what extent these advanced technologies could alleviate these problems. For the highway electrification technology, utility, environmental, and economic impacts were also studied. The feasibility of implementing one or more demonstrations in the six-county SCAG region was additionally analyzed. This report constitutes the executive summary for the project.
