Abstract. Freight transport emits a high percentage of our global industrial carbon dioxide, which is a main factor of today’s global warming. Any reduction of the carbon dioxide emission reduces negative effects on the global climate. Focussing on this challenge, we analyse the influence of automation on mode and road mean choice at the German level. For assessing the impacts of the automation, we use a macroscopic freight transport model for Germany. The automation will be modelled in 2 scenarios, which are focused on autonomous road freight transport. The scenarios are compared with the corresponding baseline scenarios in 2030/2040.
