Transportation Energy Efficiency Trends, 1972--1992
- Oak Ridge National Lab., TN (United States)
- Oak Ridge Associated Universities, Inc., TN (United States)
The US transportation sector, which remains 97% dependent on petroleum, used a record 22.8 quads of energy in 1993. Though growing much more slowly than the economy from 1975 to 1985, energy use for transportation is now growing at nearly the same rate as GDP. This report describes the analysis of trends in energy use and energy intensity in transportation into components due to, (1) growth in transportation activity, (2) changes in energy intensity, and (3) changes in the modal structure of transportation activities.
