Energy and Environment Division researchers have developed a computer model that forecasts the complex and, at times, surprising impacts of proposed federal policies intended to increase vehicle fuel economy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Called AUTO (for Automobile Use, Technologies, and Ownership), the model predicts the effects of proposed "feebates"--fees on inefficient vehicles, rebates on efficient ones--by looking a decade into the future.
"Feebates are found to have very few shortcomings and promise to yield large benefits to society," says E&E's William Davis, primary author of an upcoming DOE Office of Policy report on the subject. "By affecting prices that consumers and manufacturers see in the market for new vehicles, feebates are likely to be effective in achieving energy, environmental, and economic goals simultaneously."
Davis is a member of E&E's Energy Analysis Program, led by Mark Levine, who also participated in the development of the model. AUTO synthesizes earlier efforts to model the private vehicle market.
AUTO is one of the tools being used by the Clinton Administration as it grapples with how to best reduce oil imports and air pollution, and how to meet the U.S. pledge to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels. Currently, private cars and light trucks account for more than 50 percent of U.S. transportation energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions.
The Clinton Administration has created a Federal Advisory Committee--known informally as Car Talk--to assess a number of existing and proposed policies. These include economic incentives such as feebates, gas taxes, a gas- guzzler tax, and CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) standards. In theory, all have the potential to reduce overall energy usage and the threat of global warming.
AUTO allows policymakers to simulate the changes to the market that take place under alternative strategies. By modeling the interaction between consumer demand and manufacturer supply, it forecasts the characteristics of vehicles produced, and the patterns of household purchase, ownership, and use of these vehicles. AUTO also determines overall fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions.
In the analysis of feebates, six alternative fee/rebate programs were analyzed. All tilt the price that consumers pay for new vehicles in favor of the more fuel-efficient ones. All are revenue neutral--that is, the fees and rebates even out.
LBL's analysis concluded that over time, feebates would improve the average fuel economy of new vehicles to a maximum of 11-18 percent. This would reduce U.S. fuel consumption in 2010 by 6-8 billion gallons per year. The report predicts a 7-8 percent reduction in gasoline consumption by cars and light trucks. Reducing fuel consumption also cuts carbon dioxide emissions. Between 1995 and 2010, cumulative emissions are reduced by 750-890 million tons.
According to AUTO's feebate assessment, consumers fare very well, while the effect on manufacturers is mixed. The consumer model (CARS, developed by Kenneth Train, chair of UC Berkeley's Center for Regulatory Policy) finds that consumers purchase more fuel-efficient vehicles under feebates. They pay a little more for efficient vehicles, but fuel savings more than compensate. AUTO predicts benefits of $80-95 per household per year, or $10 billion per year nationally.
The manufacturer model (developed by K. G. Duleep of Energy and Environment Analysis) includes engineering and cost data on about 50 current fuel-economy technologies. The model shows that feebates make these technologies more cost-effective. Manufacturers respond by producing more fuel-efficient vehicles.
The financial effects of feebates are slightly negative for domestic carmakers because foreign firms currently have more fuel-efficient fleets. Initially, this would cause domestic manufacturers to lose roughly a one-percent share of the market. This should improve as U.S. manufacturers respond with better fuel efficiency.
"According to the analysis, in the vehicle sector we should be able to not only avoid additional costs but to provide additional benefits," Davis says. "That is possible because the analysis shows that used-car consumers in particular want more fuel-efficient cars."
LBL organic chemist Peter Schultz has been named co-winner of the prestigious Wolf Prize in Chemistry for 1994/95. Schultz, 38, is a principal investigator in both the Materials Sciences and Structural Biology divisions and a professor of chemistry at UC Berkeley.
Schultz will share the $100,000 prize with Richard Lerner of the Scripps Institute. Both men are being honored for their separate work in converting antibodies into enzymes. This work, says the Wolf Foundation, "may potentially revolutionize the process of obtaining new chemical products in the laboratory and by industry."
Schultz is widely recognized for his contributions to the understanding of the mechanisms of molecular recognition and catalysis in biological systems. One example of this work is the design of highly efficient "catalytic antibodies" that are able to cut, splice, and modify biological molecules at specific points.
Schultz has also developed a new technique for studying proteins in which unnatural amino acids can be inserted site-specifically into proteins. In the last year, he and his coworkers have expanded the genetic code to include more than 80 unnatural amino acids being substituted into proteins so that their catalytic and binding properties and stability can be studied.
Schultz is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the recipient of many lectureships and awards, including the NSF Waterman, ACS Pure Chemistry, E. O. Lawrence, Protein Society Young Investigator, and Eli Lilly awards. He is also a founder of the biotech company, Affymax. He joined LBL and the chemistry department at UC Berkeley in 1985, after postdoctoral studies at MIT. His undergraduate and graduate work was done at Caltech.
The Israeli-based Wolf Foundation has presented the award each year since 1978 to honor achievements in agriculture, mathematics, chemistry, physics, medicine, and the arts. The Wolf Prize will be presented to Schultz by the president of Israel this March in Jerusalem.
Past LBL winners of the Wolf Prize include Alexander Pines of the Materials Sciences Division, and the late George Pimentel, former head of LBL's Chemical Biodynamics Division.
The Laboratory community bid farewell this week to Employee Assistance Program Manager Kathleen Handron, who is leaving LBL for a position in private industry. On Tuesday, well-wishers gathered at Building 26 to commemorate her 14 years of service at LBL.
Handron joined Human Resources (then Personnel) in 1980 as a half-time coordinator for the Recreation Program. She soon became full-time, taking charge of HR's Vocational Rehabilitation Service, and Health Service's Employee Assistance Program. She established the Employees' Buying Service--a source of bargains for many at the Laboratory--and coordinated such popular events as the annual offsite picnic and the LBL Runaround.
"We will miss her professionally as well as personally," said Health Services group leader Henry Stauffer at Tuesday's reception. "I think many people from all divisions and departments share this sense of loss. We have been fortunate to have Kathleen with us to handle many difficult situations."
To assure continuous availability of Employee Assistance services following Handron's departure, LBL has arranged for interim coverage by UC Berkeley's Employee Assistance Program, UC CARE Services for Faculty and Staff (not to be confused with the UC Care Health Plan).
"The services which were provided by the internal Employee Assistance Program will be available from UC Berkeley's program," Handron said. "I have worked with them and have a great deal of trust and confidence in the services they will provide to the Laboratory community."
More about the change to UCB CARE Services
Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 17, employees and managers who are seeking Employee Assistance services may do so by contacting UC Berkeley CARE Services. CARE Services will arrange for a staff member to be available part time on the LBL site; EAP visits will be available both onsite at LBL Health Services and offsite at the CARE Services offices, located at University Health Services in the Tang Center at 2222 Bancroft Way. They may be reached at 643-7754.
CARE Services has provided employee assistance for UCB faculty and staff for eight years. It is staffed by a diverse and highly qualified group of licensed employee assistance professionals. During this transition in EAP services, CARE Services is committed to providing confidential, accessible and effective help to employees in need of assessment and referral. Supervisors and managers who are dealing with concerns related to employees with personal problems may also make use of CARE Services' consultation services.
If you have any questions about the transitional services, you may contact Delores Gaines, Employee/Labor Relations manager, at X6747.

Photo/Digital Imaging Services, formerly Photographic Services, has opened up shop in Bldg. 46-139 after vacating its Bldg. 10 location just before the Christmas shutdown. The move signals a more accessible location--nearer to both a shuttle stop and a planned customer parking space--plus a whole new way of doing business.
There are no dark rooms in the new location, and definitely no photo chemicals. Instead, it's all cameras and computers, says Photo Services supervisor Don Fike. The department officially converted to digital imaging on October 1, but it has been a gradual transformation until now.
Although photographers continue to use regular film for photography, all chemical photoprocessing takes place off-site. This will eliminate some 1,500 gallons of hazardous waste annually, Fike says.
Instead of using chemicals, scanners are used to transfer a negative, slide, or photograph into a digital image. The digital copy can then be reproduced using a special printer.
"The quality of these prints is amazing," Fike says, "and although off-site processing takes a little longer initially, accessing and reproducing digital images is much faster once they are archived. And because everything is on computer, composite images for displays, viewgraphs, and slide presentations are easier to produce."
For Lab personnel who want to know more about the new capabilities of Photo/Digital Imaging Services, Fike plans to offer several lunchtime presentations over the next few months. He will include question-and-answer sessions in order to learn more about customers' needs. In the meantime, any questions should be directed to Fike at X5731 or X5100.
