The Future of Transport Between Digitalization and Decarbonization: Trends Strategies and Effects on Energy Consumption
This book explores the future of the transportation sector amid the ongoing transitions toward digitalization and decarbonization, with a particular focus on energy consumption. It examines historical developments in transportation across different world regions, analyzes current mobility trends, and presents future scenarios for the evolution of transport systems. The authors compare various decarbonization strategies, including electrification, hydrogen, biofuels, and the adoption of cleaner vehicles to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. The book also investigates the impact of digital technologies on transportation, including shared mobility, autonomous vehicles, Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), and online platforms. Furthermore, it discusses policies and regulatory measures that can encourage sustainable mobility, improve energy efficiency, and reduce the environmental impacts of transportation. By integrating technological innovation, energy transition, and public policy, the book provides insights into the opportunities and challenges of developing a more efficient and sustainable transportation system. It serves as a valuable reference for researchers, policymakers, transportation planners, and professionals in the energy and transportation sectors.
