Environmental assessment of 9 European public bus transportation systems

  • The transportation sector is one of the largest sources of EU’s greenhouse gas emissions. In 2011, trans-portation represented approximately 25 percent of total EU’s greenhouse gas emissions. Urban mobilityaccounts for 40 % of all CO2emissions of road transport and up to 70 % of other pollutants from transport.As, transportation and mobility play a crucial part both in urban economics and the quality of life, it is ofgreat significance to ensure a low carbon transportation sector, so as to deal with the threat that climatechange poses to urban areas. This study examines the factors that affect the production of carbon dioxide(CO2) as well as of air pollutants, in 9 major European cities, aiming to provide a comprehensive overviewof the actual knowledge on the atmospheric pollution from public transportation systems. CO2emissionsas well as air pollutants, such as CO, HC, PM, NOx are calculated for the diesel and CNG bus fleets of theEuropean cities under study.

Finally the environmental benefits, in terms of CO2and CO, HC, PM, NOxemissions reductions, from the penetration of different biodiesel blends (from B10 to B100) to the busfleets are estimated.zeige mehrzeige weniger
