Project Status

Subject Development and Applications in Intercity Transportation Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction Evaluation Module
Purpose

  According to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications administrative policies "Promoting sustainable green transportation and implementing energy conservation and carbon reduction policies", establishing an assessment model of energy consumption and greenhouse gas reduction of the transportation sector is an important task in policy making. The previous project on the "integrated information platform for energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector of Taiwan” is used to analysis the National and overall level strategy. In this project, in addition to maintain the existing platform, and further collect the domestic and international literature and research about carbon reduction strategies and evaluation model at, as well as held exchange meeting which invite the experts in this topic, as a reference to expand the system function.

  The evaluation model import transportation forecasting model to strength the function of assessing traffic strategies, and evaluate the energy conservation and carbon reduction benefit subdivided into "mode" and "regional" dimensions. The evaluated benefit can be covered with the use of private transport management, promotion of energy conservation vehicle, promotion of public transport and other strategies. The modified model will be applied to 2 promoted and 3 future intercity case study to analyze the concrete benefits of energy conservation and carbon reduction, as the policy of the intercity Department of Transportation reference reduction measures. Also combined with GIS presents "regional" characteristics of the energy conservation and carbon reduction ,and reflects different mode and strategy effects through visualization.

  In addition to the expansion of platform, this project is expected to participate in the international transport sector energy conservation and carbon reduction conference. Further maintain the "green transportation" website which establish by the Institute of Transportation, and improve the public transport for the recognition of green through green transportation advocacy and news postings.
