Summary In order to implement the MOTC’s strategies to promote sustainable green transportation and to practice the policies of reducing carbon emission and conserving energy, the Institute of Transportation has been continuing to promote various plans regarding the transportation CGE model and information platform since 2010. In particular, the program has been incorporated into the structure set up for the “National Science and Technology Program” from 2010. Based on the results of projects of previous years, there are 4 main tasks in this project:

1. Reviewing the structure and building the prototype of the “decision support system”;
2. Reviewing the structure and the assessment findings of the “transportation CGE model”;
3. Enhancing, maintaining and integrating the “information platform”; and
4. Updating and maintaining the educational website for green transportation.

  Related results on the DSS of this project have been applied by the MOTC as valuable references in some importation situations, e.g.: attending the meeting of the Committee for the Promotion of Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction (established by Taiwan’s Executive Yuan) and discussing Zero Growth in Electricity Demand with the Bureau of Energy. In addition, this project has developed a human-computer interface prototype of DSS. Advanced policy options can be developed based on the results of this study. This project also holds three promotional events to supplement the website of green transportation in order to raise public awareness of the concept of green transportation.
