Will the environmental goals be reached by the transportation sector?; Kan transporterna klara miljoemaalen?

Abstract

This study analyses the possibilities to reduce energy use and emissions from the Swedish transportation sector to the year 2015. Energy use and emissions are calculated from an official prognosis of future transport work, and estimations of specific energy use and emission factors for different technologies, fuels and means of transport. The results are compared with official environmental goals as well as with goals where ecological considerations have been taken into account. Energy conservation, use of transportation fuels from renewables, and development of new motor- and cleaning technology can lead to emission reductions by 70-90% for carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide compared to 1989. 117 refs, 48 tabs, 9 figs
