Sustainability in Minnesota's Transportation Systems

Rural highway through autumn trees by Skeeze via PixabayIn 2007, with bipartisan support, Minnesota passed the Next Generation Energy Act, which broadly addressed the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in Minnesota. The Library recently received several reports that touch on greenhouse gases in relation to the transportation sector. Emissions from transportation systems is a major contributor of greenhouse gas emissions both here in Minnesota and around the world. 

The Minnesota Department of Transportation's (MnDOT) Sustainability Report (2018) is the third installment in an annual series that is a product of MnDOT's Sustainable Transportation Steering Committee. The Steering Committee was created in part as a response to Minnesota Statutes 174.01, sub. 2, which directs MnDOT to "reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the state's transportation sector," among other directives. This report provides a broad overview of the Minnesota Department of Transportation's efforts regarding environmental sustainability of transportation systems. 

Pathways to Decarbonizing Transportation in Minnesota (August 2019) was created collaboratively by several state agencies and makes recommendations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from surface transportation, such as trucks, buses, cars, and motorcycles. One of the recommendations of this report is to provide more support for electric vehicle adoption in the state. According to Accelerating Electric Vehicle Adoption: A Vision for Minnesota (2019), which is another new report in the Library, MnDOT's goal is to achieve 20% of surface transportation by electric vehicles, based on vehicle registrations, by the year 2030. The report recommends that Minnesota address electric vehicle infrastructure, availability, and incentive issues, along with public education initiatives in order to achieve this ambitious goal. 

For a broader perspective, the Congressional Research Service has published Vehicle Electrification: Federal and State Issues Affecting Deployment (June 2019). This report describes past, current, and potentially future federal, local, and state initiatives which may encourage electric vehicle use. According to the report, forty-five states, including Minnesota, have some sort of regulations or incentives about electric vehicles, such as income tax credits, reduced registration fees, or excise tax and emission test waivers.
