This study investigates car sharing participation in Sweden within the broader context of sharing economy platforms. Its objective is to explore the relationship between internet use and car sharing, while accounting for residential area, gender, and age. The analysis is based on nationally...

The transition to a zero-emission vehicle fleet represents a pivotal element of Europe’s decarbonization strategy, with Italy’s participation being particularly significant given the size of its automotive market. This study investigates the potential for battery electric cars (BEVs) to...

Background: Sustainability is a critical concern in transportation, notably in light of governmental initiatives such as cap-and-trade systems and eco-label regulations aimed at reducing emissions. In this context, collaborative approaches among carriers, which involve the exchange of shipment...

In Spain, the transport sector is one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily due to the widespread use of fossil fuels. Electric vehicles (EVs) are a key component in transitioning towards sustainable mobility and transport decarbonization. The article presents...

The paper analyses the attractiveness problems of urban public transportation in the context of promoting sustainable mobility and multimodality. The article is based on the methods of scientific literature and analysis and qualitative research analysis. The analytical-methodical section of the...

This study investigates the socioeconomic determinants of household expenditure on sports bicycles in Spain, providing novel insights into the affordability and equity dimensions of sustainable mobility policies. Whilst cycling promotion has emerged as a central pillar of urban and environmental...

The transition to a zero-emission car fleet is a pivotal element of Europe's decarbonisation strategy. Italy's participation in this trajectory is significant, given the size of its car fleet. Currently, only battery electric (BEVs) and hydrogen-powered are considered zero-emission vehicles. The...

This article studies the effects of the latest European regulations on carbon emissions on the Italian car market and discusses the possibility of achieving climate neutrality of road transport through the "mere" replacement of cars currently on the road with new zeroemission cars. Since 2016,...

Companies across industries seek to assess the costs of complying with environmental regulations and meeting voluntary emission targets. This paper develops a carbon abatement cost model for firms operating a portfolio of assets with differing cost or load profiles. The resulting abatement cost...

Purpose: The objective of this study is to examine the status of implementation of 13 sustainability initiatives that impact road freight performance.Design/methodology/approach: Through an empirical analysis with information collected from surveys carried out on 368 Spanish road transport...

Electric vehicles (EVs) in the EU face growing turbulence as shrinking consumer subsidies coincide with intensified competition from lower-cost Chinese manufacturers. Recent EU measures - higher tariffs on Chinese EVs and a strategy to reinforce the full industrial value chain - aim to safeguard...

A rapid transition from combustion engines to electric vehicles is essential for climate protection in road transport. This report highlights current trends in electric mobility in Germany based on data from the Open Energy Tracker platform. Although new registrations of electric passenger cars...

Der vorliegende Bericht untersucht die internationale Verbreitung und strukturelle Ausprägung zweier Schlüsseltechnologien - Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) sowie alternative Antriebe und klimafreundliche Kraftstoffe - auf Basis eines webAI-gestützten Analyseansatzes. Als Datenbasis dient der...

How people move through cities has far-reaching consequences for air quality, public health, and the climate. Steering urban passenger transport toward low-emission pathways is one of the most direct levers policy makers can use to make cities cleaner, healthier, and more livable. Yet urban...

Background: Despite concerted research efforts, the collection of domestic waste remains poorly understood in terms of financial and environmental cost drivers. Detailed studies of specific systems, yielding limited broader understanding, remain the norm. Methods: This study presents flexible...

This study investigates the possible socio-economic impacts of Hyperloop technology on establishing and reshaping EU trade routes. Hyperloop - a novel ultra-high-speed transportation system - demonstrates the capability to achieve supersonic speeds to move cargo and passengers. Delivering goods...
