Traduction de «l'intégration des carburants » (Français → Anglais) :

Research will focus on: the integration of alternative motor fuels into the transport system, particularly into clean urban transport; the cost-effective and safe production, storage, and distribution (including fuelling infrastructure) of alternative motor fuels; the optimal utilisation of alternative fuels in new concepts of energy efficient vehicles; strategies and tools to manage the market transformation process for alternative motor fuels.

The GVTA endorses recommendations also made by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, urging the federal government to: establish a new program of investments in multimodal integrated transportation systems, including urban transit, in collaboration with provincial, territorial, and municipal governments, with up to $1 billion in federal funds per year within five years; consider funding its contribution to such systems by allocating a portion of the fuel tax and encouraging provincial and territorial governments not yet doing so to match the federal contribution; supporting municipal governments' investments in comprehensive trans ...[+++]portation management plans, including assessments of financial options, low-cost solutions, user fees, and vehicle and parking restrictions; and committing to eliminating excise taxes and the GST on fuels used in municipal transit systems and on transportation and initiatives aimed at increasing the use of public transit, such as making employer-provided transit passes a non-taxable benefit.

Research will focus on: high efficiency propulsion systems and their components, based on alternative and renewable fuels, taking into account the fuelling infrastructure; development of zero or near zero emission propulsion systems and components, in particular those integrating fuel cells, hydrogen combustion and their fuelling infrastructure into the transport system; integrated concepts for clean urban transport and rational use of the car in urban locations.

The proposal aims at making information available to consumers in four ways: via a fuel economy label attached to each car in a showroom, via dissemination of a summary guide containing the fuel economy data of every vehicle on the new car market, via information displayed in a poster at the point of sale, and via the inclusion of fuel consumption data in promotional material.

I would point out in reference to the concerns the member opposite has raised, that the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment task force, which represents ministers from all the provinces in Canada, in its report on cleaner vehicles and fuels recognizes that fuels and emissions control technology should be treated as an integrated system to reduce motor vehicle emissions.

Our approach to transportation fuels is really part of a larger approach to fleet management, and we wanted to put our actions in the area of alternative fuels into that context.
