DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6298193· OSTI ID:6298193

This document is the fourteenth of a series of periodic reports on the Motor Fuel Consumption (MFC) model developed for the Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Policy Integration, Office of Policy, Planning and Analysis. (1-15) The MFC model is used by DOE to evaluate the impact of conservation policies on fuel consumption and on the disaggregate components of fuel demand. These components include passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and heavy-duty vehicles. The model is not a forecasting tool in that it does not provide detailed econometrically-based projections of fuel demand. The model is, however, calibrated to current statistics on fuel consumption, fleet size, and travel growth, and to econometric forecasts of new vehicle sales provided by DOE. 27 refs., 3 figs., 12 tabs.
