DEQ’s Cost-Per-Ton Analysis of Eligible Vehicles/Equipment Replacement Projects: Volkswagen Settlement
An analysis was conducted to determine the cost-per-ton of NOx emissions reduced for each Eligible Mitigation Action category. This analysis informed DEQ’s selection of categories to be funded through the Volkswagen Settlement. The following chart shows the cost-per-ton of NOx emissions reduced by replacing eligible vehicles and equipment. For a comparison, the green line represents the cost-per-ton of excess NOx emissions
