Eugene CAP 2.0 – CRO Reduction Forecast Gaps Analysis <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Recommended Additional Actions to Close the Fossil Fuel and GHG Gaps. <br />Sector‐based Actions (fossil fuel only): <br /> Natural Gas in buildings actions (from Regulation of Natural Gas work session) <br />o Action 1: Limit or prohibit new natural gas infrastructure. <br />o Action 2: Require NWNG to incentivize customers’ reduced use of natural gas or customers’ purchase <br />of emission offsets provided by NWNG’s Smart Energy Program. <br />o Action 3: Regulate the purchase and installation of natural gas fueled appliances. <br />o Action 4: Prohibit financial incentives for installing natural gas service. <br />o Action 5: Prohibit financial incentives for purchasing natural gas appliances. <br />o Action 6: Prohibit installation of natural gas service for new residential, commercial and/or industrial <br />buildings. <br />o Action 7: Require NWNG to fuel switch to biogas and renewable hydrogen. <br />o Action 8: Increase franchise fee and dedicate franchise fee funds to implementing a program that <br />provides incentives to switch from natural gas to renewable. <br />o Action 9: Reduce the term of the franchise from 20 years to 10 years. <br />o Action 10: Create a hybrid franchise fee structure: 1) fixed portion; and 2) variable fee based on <br />carbon footprint of the natural gas delivered to the community. <br />o Action 11: Prohibit the expansion of natural gas services unless NWNG can demonstrate plan to <br />decarbonize its product. <br /> Additional Building Actions (from Council Home Energy Score work session) <br />o Action 12: Implement a Home Energy score program. <br /> Transportation‐Gasoline/Diesel Actions <br />o Action 13: City adopts more aggressive rate of implementation of the Eugene Transportation <br />System Plan goals, policies, and projects. Two scenarios have been modeled by LCOG and used for <br />this analysis. Of note, as Council considers additional actions to fill CRO gaps, it is important to <br />highlight the assumption that Eugene’s TSP would have to be fully implemented by 2035 to reach CRO <br />targets and goals. <br />Existing, Obama era fuel economy standards are included in TSP modeling. Considering the current <br />approach on these standards by the Federal government we assume that what is already included <br />the modeling is “aggressive”. <br />o Action 14: Electrify the community’s on‐road passenger vehicles and light trucks as rapidly as <br />possible, potentially via the following approaches. <br /> City of Eugene works with partners (EWEB, ODOE, ODEQ, UO) to promote and enhance <br />local financial incentives, and bulk EV purchases in a way that aligns community passenger <br />vehicle EV adoption rates with CRO targets. <br /> A new vehicle registration fee or fuel distribution fee for City of Eugene on fossil fuel vehicles <br />(gasoline and diesel) or fuels. Fee revenue could be used to provide additional local EV <br />incentives. <br /> Prohibit the sale of fossil fuel powered passenger vehicles in Eugene after 2030. <br /> Other Policy and non‐fossil fuel actions <br />o Action 15: Reduce refrigerant loss through possible approaches such as: new service fee for <br />refrigerant re‐charge of systems due to leakage. Fee is based on global warming potential of the <br />refrigerant lost. New fee or tax on new refrigeration equipment that contains high impact <br />refrigerants. Credit programs for recycling/decommissioning of older refrigeration equipment. <br />o Action 16: Capture methane from organics before disposal and/or additional effort to increase the <br />efficiency and quantity of landfill or wastewater biogas collection. <br />o Action 17: Oregon Cap‐and‐Trade program is implemented. <br /> <br />May 22, 2019, Work Session – Item 1
