Description of plan：

　　Develop the energy conservation and carbon reduction strategy assessment module for inter-city transportation in order to check the energy conservation and carbon emission strategies in assessing the variation trend in energy consumption and carbon emission for the inter-city transportation system in different areas and modals.

Research result：

• Completed the greenhouse gas emission statistical data for the transportation agency in 2015 for this Institute to update the emission baseline stipulated by the transportation agency and provide a reference for MOTC to promote the carbon reduction efficiency specified in “Diversified Highway Public Transportation Promotion Plan (2017~2020)”.   
• The developed assessment module has been included in “Transportation Agency Energy Conservation & Carbon Reduction Strategy Integration Information Platform” (address: http://dsstransport.iot.gov.tw/) established by this Institute. The function of such part has been disclosed to the agencies under MOTC, and the platform promotion education and training was also conducted on November 25, 2016.
• Updated the “Green Transportation” website (address: http://greentransport.iot.gov.tw/). By coordinating with the Facebook fans group for such website and continuous operation of relevant coupling functions, the popularity of such website will be invigorated in order to increase the clicking and browsing opportunities of social public and to demonstrate the effect in promoting the green transportation being developed by this Institute.

Effect of the plan：

　　The assessment result for the historical energy conservation and carbon reduction cases will be provided to MOTC for promoting relevant activities together with its “Greenhouse Gas Reduction & Management Method” and the result will be based for studying execution strategies.
