Energy efficiency and rebound effect in European road freight transport

the role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union

پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...

Improving Fuel Efficiency in Road Freight Transport: The Role of Information Technologies

An essential government function is to provide for the safe, efficient and environmentally friendly movement of people and goods. The past 20 years have seen tremendous growth and important changes in the use of road transport to such a degree urban congestion is adding significantly to the costs of road transport and hence to end consumers. Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) offer promising s...

Induced Demand and Rebound Effects in Road Transport

This paper analyzes aggregate personal motor-vehicle travel within a simultaneous model of aggregate vehicle travel, fleet size, fuel efficiency, and congestion formation. We measure the impacts of driving costs on congestion, and two other well-known feedback effects affecting motor-vehicle travel: its responses to aggregate road capacity (“induced demand”) and to driving costs including those...
