\n>Fossil fuel use and resulting emissions from passenger and freight vehicles were quantified for Oahu,
\n>2020 average passenger EVs consumed 7 times less fossil & cut emissions 50%.
\n>Mathematical models of 4 scenarios based on projections EVs and freight vehicles, and renewable power generation.
\n>By 2050, faster adoption of EVs & faster generation of renewable energy will result in 99% less fossil fuel consumed and 93% less CO2 emissions from passenger and freight vehicles on O\u02bbahu, (under the most ambitious scenario in the study).
\n>Scenarios intended as examples to assist stakeholders to better understand future uncertainties, develop strategies, and inform policy development.
\n>Shift needed to energy efficient modes of travel\u2014ie bicycling, walking and public transit, reducing vehicle miles traveled ( smart\u201d city planning and remote work).
