Fuel is a top cost for trucking and we pay for it through our everyday purchases.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, heavy-duty trucks \u2013 while making up only 4 percent of registered vehicles \u2013 account for 25 percent of vehicle fuel use.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the Obama administration, with important business support, is taking action to tighten fuel-efficiency for heavy-duty vehicles in standards expected to be proposed in the next month.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trucks spend $135B per year on fuel<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The average United States household pays more than $1,100 a year to fuel heavy trucks. That is a lot of money for my family, especially with a second college fund now needed, and it probably is a fair amount for your family, too.<\/p>\n<p>Across our country, the total financial bill exceeds $135 billion annually \u2013 and that is in addition to a significant and growing environmental cost.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, our nation\u2019s fleet of big trucks emits the same amount of carbon dioxide as do 130 coal plants. Climate pollution from these trucks is growing fast.<\/p>\n<p>A recent assessment from the U.S. Energy Information Agency projected that greenhouse gas emissions from heavy trucks will increase more than any other single end-use source by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>This is because increased demand for trucking services is projected to greatly exceed improvements in fuel efficiency. \u00a0Without action, producing and burning fuel in these trucks will account for nearly 30 percent of transportation related greenhouse gas emissions in 2040.<\/p>\n<p><strong>$400 in annual household savings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>President Obama\u2019s call in early 2014 for a new round of fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas standards for our nation\u2019s biggest trucks is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to dramatically alter course.<\/p>\n<p>We have the <a href=\"http:\/\/business.edf.org\/blog\/2015\/04\/03\/let-there-be-no-doubt-we-can-cut-truck-emissions-fuel-use-today\/\">technology today<\/a> to cost-effectively cut fuel consumption by 40 percent and a regulatory framework that is already producing impressive results. A <a href=\"http:\/\/business.edf.org\/blog\/2015\/04\/30\/better-fuel-efficiency-for-heavy-duty-trucks-a-target-worth-setting\">recent assessment<\/a>by the International Council on Clean Transportation found that advanced efficiency technologies, now emerging in the\u00a0marketplace, can double heavy truck fuel\u00a0economy with payback periods of 18\u00a0months or less in the 2025 to 2030 time\u00a0frame.<\/p>\n<p>Households and businesses will immediately benefit from the new truck efficiency standards.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. households, alone, stand to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.consumerfed.org\/news\/815\">save more than $400 a year<\/a>as the fuel efficiency solutions are scaled up. This will produce an annual economic benefit of $50 billion dollars.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses that rely on trucks to bring their products to market, meanwhile, could see\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/business.edf.org\/blog\/2014\/06\/11\/save-your-company-costs-support-stronger-truck-efficiency-standards\/\">freight costs drop by as much as 7 percent<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The standards will also avoid 270 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually, cut emissions of criteria pollutants and air toxics from fuel production and combustion, and reduce oil consumption by 1.4 million barrels a day \u2013 or more than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eia.gov\/dnav\/pet\/pet_move_impcus_a2_nus_ep00_im0_mbblpd_a.htm\">we import from Saudi Arabia<\/a> each year.<\/p>\n<p>The protective standards make sense for consumers, families, businesses, trucking companies and the Earth.
