Comparison of global passenger transport models and available literature
Over the last decade transport has been strongest growing sector in terms of worldwide energy demand. As a result, proper modelling of transport has become more important in models describing global…
Literatuurstudie naar modellen en onderzoeken met betrekking tot mondiaal personenvervoer
In de afgelopen jaren is wereldwijd het energieverbruik in de transport sector zeer sterk gegroeid. Het goed modelleren van transport in 'integrated assessment' modellen is daarom steeds belangrijker…
Uit een studie uitgevoerd door het RIVM en Ecofys blijkt dat dit voor het klimaatbeleid tot 2010 nog niet zo is, maar dat EU-beleid dat "eraan zit te komen" het Nederlandse beleid wèl lijkt te kunnen…
