14-15 June 2006 Parliament House Canberra Trends in energy for transport — What are the policy implications? Trends and projections of transport energy use and emissions BTRE Transport Colloquium Transport Reform, Competition and the Future David Cosgrove
2
Transport Energy Trends – Underlying effects Population increases and demographic effects Income increases and other economic impacts Technical innovation or changing technology Public preferences and behavioural responses Costs of travel (fuel prices, fares, vehicle prices, congestion etc) Increasing personal mobility (combined with limited time for daily travel)
3
Steadily increasing passenger and freight tasks Steadily increasing transport energy use
4
Relationship between per capita travel and per capita income levels
5
Modal share of urban transport Source: BTRE (2005, 2003), BTRE estimates. (LCVs = light commercial vehicles)
6
Base case projections Source: BTRE (2005), BTRE estimates
7
Total Australian Passenger task Base case projections Source: BTRE (2005), BTRE estimates – for domestic transport. (Other = mostly LCVs + motorcycles)
8
Total domestic freight task Source: BTRE (2005, 2006), BTRE estimates Base case projections
9
Total motor vehicle travel Source: BTRE (2005, 2003), BTRE estimates
10
Trends in engine efficiency – New cars Sources: BTRE (2002b), US EPA
11
Trend in engine power – new light vehicles Source: BTRE (2002b)
12
Trend in average fuel consumption – New sales Source: BTRE (2002b) – note: all light vehicles, including 4WDs and LCVs
13
Energy use by Australian domestic transport Source: BTRE (2005, 2002a) – note: includes coal used for electric rail generation
14
Liquid fuel use – Domestic and International transport Source: BTRE (2005, 2002a) – note: does not include military fuel use
15
Projected trend in Greenhouse Gas Emissions Source: BTRE (2005, 2002a) – gigagrams of CO 2 equivalent emissions Total transport sector emissions for Australia – including domestic civil transport, fuel sales to international carriers and the military, energy used in fuel refining or conversion, and energy used in vehicle manufacture and transport services
16
Trends in noxious urban air emissions Source: BTRE (2003), BTRE estimates NOx PM HC CO
17
Transport energy trends by mode Source: BTRE (2005, 1996) – note: includes Australian fuel sales to international transport Base case projections
18
