COST (European Cooperation in Field of Scientific and Technological Research), a European Communities coordinated research organization founded in 1971, presents this final report on the rational use of energy in the European transportation sector. The report contains analyses comparing Member States' energy conservation policies directed towards energy efficiency improvements in key transportation sector subdivisions - light and heavy road vehicular transport, passenger and freight rail, and air transport. The parameters taken into account in the analyses include statistical data on: traffic (number of passengers, quantity of freight, distances travelled, etc.); relative energy consumption (global and unit values); fuel costs; and type, number, age and maintenance status of vehicles. The analyses also made use of computerized simulations of proposed energy conservation schemes to forecast expected socio-economic impacts, energy savings and reductions in air pollution.
