Research on energy saving and emission reduction of urban transportation under the concept of low-carbon life

摘要

In response to the national concept of green and low carbon, the carbon emission analysis and peak prediction of transportation in 20 cities were carried out by using the carbon emission calculation model based on residents’ travel, and the quantitative effects of various improvement measures were evaluated. The results show that the urban transport structure and residents' travel distance are positively correlated with the urban carbon emission intensity, and the urban transport carbon emission in China will reach the peak around 2023. Accelerating the application of new energy, optimizing the urban transport structure, building a green transport system, and optimizing the urban transport line network all have good emission reduction effects.
