Engr 103 - Group 7
Energy and Carbon Footprint of Electric and Conventional Automobiles
Goal:
Research on Diesel. We are considering many factors such as price, chemical effects, availability,
energy production, emissions, and several other factors.
Technical Notes:
- During research, the consumer factor became a topic. Decided to add consumer to the list of factors to
consider in the overall idea. Although we are sending a letter to the U.S. Budget Committee, investing
something also means it has to be reasonable for the consumer, or else, the investment is useless.
Therefore, our group is currently trying to find a balance.
Having the government/big industries invest in clean energy is, unfortunately, expensive, due to the technology
that it entails. Even if we were to propose the most ideal vehicle with the cleanest source of energy, the
companies only want one thing: profit. However, as stated before, it is expensive, leading companies to
boost their prices.
However, we did have the rationale for the future in our decision to pick which side we would lean towards.
This project is an investment for a cleaner future; decreasing the emissions and leaving a smaller
carbon footprint. If we did not make this effort, health issues can/will arise in people, and the question we
asked: Are people going to pay more to have them be healthy in the future? Or are they going to pay for their
health bill?

Scientists, Project Manager, and Technical Writer. We annotated the references for ease of
accessibility and future use in the drafting of the memo.
Research Notes:
In the research we have been allocating, through GREET and online research, our group Research Scientists
created a on-working Spreadsheet (Figure below)
