Upcoming Emissions Analytics conferences
Tyre Insights
Tyre Insights from Emissions Analytics is the quickest way of distilling cutting edge tyre science to essential facts, empowering your business strategically to plan products that meet the needs and regulations of tomorrow.
Emissions Analytics’ new Tyre Insights publications will be a quarterly report offering an accessible synopsis of the latest developments in tyre emissions and sustainability research.
Latest news
European policy makers are panicking, and with good reason. Not only does their decarbonisation policy look both ineffective and irrelevant to today’s challenges, the somewhat uncouth policy from across the Atlantic is looking better adapted every day. Of course, reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions cannot be addressed in a vacuum, as it is intrinsically entwined with population trends, economic activity and power generation – as discussed in our recent newsletter – The identity crisis for net zero.
Expanded California-based event to unite leading experts in tailpipe and non-exhaust emissions.
Following the success of Tyre Emissions & Sustainability USA 2026, Emissions Analytics has announced an expanded 2027 event that will broaden the discussion beyond tyre emissions to include brake emissions and real-world tailpipe emissions measurement technologies, including Portable Emissions Measurement Systems (PEMS).
The event will take place on 25-26 March 2027 at the Beckman Center at the University of California Irvine, immediately following the long-established Coordinating Research Council (CRC) Real World Emissions Workshop in Long Beach, California.
For decades, vehicle emissions were largely understood through the exhaust pipe. Regulation, engineering priorities and public attention focused overwhelmingly on tailpipe pollutants, shaping the direction of vehicle development across the industry. But the picture is changing.
Regular readers will expect predominantly empirical data from Emissions Analytics, but this newsletter takes a detour into pure logic. More Karl Popper than David Hume. At the time of writing, vehicle decarbonisation targets across Europe are coming under serious strain, yet proponents are doubling down. The fear of invalidating the fundamental decarbonisation policy of electric vehicles powered by renewables is too great. But rather than argue over the latest facts and figures – are battery electric vehicle (BEVs) sales soaring or crashing – we can assess the situation in an alternative way. We can ask ourselves what the logical conditions would need to be to meet the various mandates. Is it logically possible?
The full program for Tyre Emissions & Sustainability USA 2026 is now live, confirming a two-day agenda dedicated to one of mobility’s most urgent and fast-evolving challenges: tyre emissions, chemical composition and lifecycle sustainability.
Taking place at the Beckman Center in Irvine, California, the conference will bring together leading scientists, regulators, material innovators and industry specialists to examine the environmental and health impacts of tyre wear and to explore practical pathways forward.
With the event fast approaching in April, delegates can now review the confirmed speaker line-up and session topics across chemistry, testing, air quality, regulation and circularity.
The full programme for the 3rd Off-Highway & Power Generation USA 2026 conference is now live, confirming a comprehensive two-day agenda focused on energy-agnostic decarbonisation across non-road machinery and stationary power.
Taking place on 20–21 May 2026 at the Sheraton Indianapolis City Centre Hotel, the event will convene regulators, OEMs, fuel specialists, powertrain engineers and technology providers to examine what meaningful emissions reduction looks like in practice.
Every morning, this shopkeeper places a sign in his window: “Workers of the world unite.” He doesn’t believe it, no-one does, but he places a sign anyway to avoid trouble, to signal compliance, to get along. And because every shopkeeper on every street does the same, the system persists – not through violence alone, but through participation of ordinary people in rituals they privately know to be false.

Critical Mass Wins 2026 Independent Press Award
We are proud to share that Critical Mass: The One Thing You Need to Know About Green Cars has been named a 2026 Independent Press Award Winner.
In an era where climate change dominates global discussion, Critical Mass sees Felix our CEO, Nick Molden and Felix Leach unpack the complexity of vehicle emissions with clarity and rigour. Building on insights from Felix’s previous work, Racing Toward Zero, the book tackles the often-confusing landscape of automotive pollution by asking a deceptively simple question: what single piece of information best captures the true environmental impact of cars?
