This report investigates the issue of local actors resisting the implementation of high-speed rail (HSR) routes through the example of reactions to the Brenner Base project in Germany and Austria. In order to understand the causes of significant resistance, the report contrasts reactions to the...

The (supposed) regressivity of (primarily price-based) climate protection policy instruments often hampers an evidence-based discussion at the political level and is used as an argument against the implementation of corresponding measures. To assess the distributional implications of...

The objective of providing European Climate Law-aligned pathways and the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) underpinning them is to offer a reference that companies can draw on to prepare their transition plans. By addressing an intermediate level between companies and the EU's economy-wide...

Rund die Hälfte des Endenergieverbrauchs in Nordrhein-Westfalen entfiel 2022 nach Angaben von IT.NRW (2025) auf die Sektoren Private Haushalte (26%) und Verkehr (25%). Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die Erzeugung von Raumwärme und Warmwasser, aber auch zur Beleuchtung ihrer...

This paper develops and applies I3E-Transport, a new passenger transport model for Ireland that integrates behavioural, technological, and macroeconomic drivers to assess the effectiveness of two decarbonisation policies-carbon taxation and internal combustion engine (ICE) phase-outs-on...

This study quantifies the effect of train station openings on residential house prices across Germany over a 12-year period to provide generalizable evidence on the valuation of access to passenger rail by households. It is based on data on about 90 train station openings between 2009 and 2020...

Urban passenger transport is a key point in the progress of any city. It is a strategic area whose efficient and sustainable development requires the incorporation of multiple disciplines. It affects territorial, social, health, economic, and environmental policies, among others. In recent...

Demand-side mitigation strategies have been gaining momentum in climate change mitigation research. Still, the impact of different approaches in passenger transport, one of the largest energy demand sectors, remains unclear. We couple a transport simulation model to an energy system optimisation...

Passenger travel by car currently accounts for a significant part of greenhouse gas emissions, but reducing dependency on the car in rural areas while ensuring accessibility is challenging. This study offers a user perspective on the constraints to fossil-free mobility in a remote rural area of...

Rund die Hälfte des Endenergieverbrauchs in Nordrhein-Westfalen entfiel 2021 nach Angaben von IT.NRW (2023) auf die Sektoren Private Haushalte (27%) und Verkehr (24%). Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die Erzeugung von Raumwärme und Warmwasser, aber auch zur Beleuchtung ihrer...

Freight integration into public transport is a promising sustainable last-mile solution. This chapter determines circumstances under which integrating freight and passenger demand benefits operators and passengers. We formulate a joint optimization model that determines the train schedule, the...

Rund 28% des jährlichen Endenergieverbrauchs in Deutschland entfällt laut der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Energiebilanzen (AGEB) auf den Sektor der privaten Haushalte. Weitere 27% der Endenergie werden vom Verkehrssektor verbraucht. Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die Erzeugung von...

With the advent of ultra-high-speed public transportation, the need for more efficient arrangements of points of embarkation and disembarkation (“stops”) become a pressing necessity as such arrangements are established at the outset of a new system. To make the most of ultra-high-speed...

The Economics of Electric Vehicles for Passenger Transportation' provides answers to three critical questions: Why should developing countries pursue e-mobility? When does an accelerated transition to electric vehicles (EVs) make sense for developing countries? How can governments make this...
