COST Act

HR 2188 (COST Act) requires two studies to inform federal fleet decisions. The Comptroller General must analyze the costs of replacing gasoline-powered federal vehicles with electric or E85 flex-fuel vehicles, including necessary infrastructure. The Energy Secretary must compare lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of conventional gasoline, E85 flex-fuel, and electric vehicles using established models. Both studies must be completed within one year of enactment, providing data for future federal vehicle fleet policies without changing existing regulations.
