Rund 29% 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 (AGEB 2022a). Haushalte verwenden Energie insbesondere für die...

In this chapter we draw from existing literature and a range of statistics to describe economic, entrepreneurial and innovative activities in the transportation and warehousing sector of the U.S. economy. We suggest multiple avenues for future work, and argue for more research on the role of...

What is necessary to reach net zero emissions in the transport sector on a global level? To keep limiting global warming to 1.5° C within reach, the world has to decarbonise by mid-century, with every sector contributing as much as possible as soon as possible. This paper identifies what has to...

The global transport sector is the second largest energy consumer and strongly relies on fossil fuels. Efforts for reducing GHG emissions on this sector depend on energy efficiency improvement and the use of renewable fuels and electrification. All these technologies are commercially available...

Many countries have only recently introduced carbon taxation to reduce emissions and the time series data for evaluating these policies is not available yet. Consequently, we use the imposition quasi-carbon-taxes in the German transportation sector, i.e. taxes on fuel that are not calculated...

What is the situation of the transport sector in the Czech Republic and what is its importance for the economy of the Czech Republic? How and to what extent do businesses operating in this sector influence the sector as such, and how many businesses in this sector have such influence?...

The transportation sector is the lifeblood of an economy. It is divided into three principal categories, i.e., modes of transportation: air, land, and water. This paper analyzes the post-financial crisis value added data for the Croatian economy (2008-2015) by analyzing the dependence of three...

What is the situation of the transport sector in the Czech Republic and what is its importance for the economy of the Czech Republic? How and to what extent do businesses operating in this sector influence the sector as such, and how many businesses in this sector have such influence?...

Das oberste klimapolitische Ziel der EU ist die vollständige Dekarbonisierung der Wirtschaft ihrer Mitgliedsstaaten bis 2050, d. h. die Klimaneutralität in allen Sektoren, die derzeit noch von fossilen Brennstoffen abhängig sind. Dies spiegelt sich in der politischen Agenda der EU-Kommission...

This article argues that carbon reduction goals in the transport sector should be achieved through the management of policy making and implementation processes, based on a transport-sector carbon emissions identity and the DIRECT approach. Based on the above identity, it is argued that carbon...

According to the Paris Agreement, the European energy system transition is essential to achieve GHG emission reduction targets set by the EU and limit the growth of global temperatures. Investigating the role of emerging mitigation technologies and their uncertainties together with the different...

Transport infrastructure is one of the key elements in achieving a balanced growth within an economy. The water transport sector, in particular, plays a much larger role in an archipelagic country such as the Philippines. The country however, has underinvested in public infrastructure for...

Comprehensive global decarbonization requires transportation services cease to rely on fossil fuels for power generation. This paper develops a generic, time-driven life-cycle cost model for mobility services to address two closely related questions central to the emergence of clean energy...

The article summarises the essence of airport infrastructure and explores the roles of production airport infrastructure in the world air transport system. It is noted that airport infrastructure is a complex dynamic subsystem of global production infrastructure of the world economy and is aimed...

The report presents policy options for the successful integration of drones into the transport system. How can countries reap the benefits of drone transport while limiting risks? The report examines concerns about the acceptability, efficiency and sustainability of drone transport. The analysis...

We investigate biofuel substitution in the U.S. transportation sector, for the period from 1990 to 2017, using the normalized quadratic model. We relax the homoskedasticity assumption and instead assume that the covariance matrix of the errors of the flexible demand system is time-varying. We...

Zur Erreichung der Klimaschutzziele ist der Einsatz von Wasserstoff aus heutiger Sicht unumgänglich. Zum gegenwärtigen Zeitpunkt aber spielt Wasserstoff für die Direktnutzung sowie zur Weiterverarbeitung im Energiesystem noch kaum eine Rolle. CO2-freier Wasserstoff, der auf Basis erneuerbarer...

Energy systems are rapidly transitioning towards decarbonization, thanks in part to innovative digital technologies and changing mobility demands. This open access book examines the decarbonization and digitalization transformation in the transport sector, with a particular focus on energy...

Comprehensive global decarbonization will require that transportation services cease to rely on fossil fuels. Here we develop a generic life-cycle cost model to address two closely related questions central to the emergence of sustainable transportation: (i) the utilization rates (hours of...

"This book provides a timely contribution to transportation management to explore the challenges and the new directions to match travelers' needs in a post-COVID19 era with the aim of offering methodological applications in transportation to inspire scholars to further their efforts in boosting...
