摘要: |
This paper reports the findings of a study to investigate specific measures through which Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) might be used to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions on Canada's road/highway transportation network. The ITS market packages which provide significant GHG reduction benefits, and should be considered for widespread deployment in Canada include Incident Management, Traffic Control, Traveller Information, Electronic Payment Systems, Commercial Vehicle Electronic Clearance, and Advanced Vehicle Safety Systems. If all the ITS market packages are deployed, the total annual GHG reduction in year 2010 is estimated to be 770 kt. This figure represents 0.5% of the total GHG output attributed to transportation in 1990, and 2% of the total transportation GHG reduction target for 2010. The ITS market packages provide a range of ancillary benefits such as reduced fuel consumption, reduced collisions, reduced delay and improved operating efficiencies. The cost savings associated with these benefits offset the direct costs, resulting in a lifetime net benefit per tonne of GHG reduction of $100. (A*) For the covering abstract see ITRD E110327. |
