- To identify the relationship between freight/passenger transport and energy, taking into account the evolution of the political, socio-economic and technological environment.
- To identify indicators measuring the impacts of the identified trends on freight and passenger transport energy use.

PEST DRIVERS VS. SCM TRENDS FOR FREIGHT TRANSPORT
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
- The provision and use of freight transportation services demonstrates the following characteristics:
Use of more energy efficient freight transportation vehicles Improvement in vehicle utilization, higher load factors and reduction of empty runs Increase of the use of intermodal freight transportation
CONCLUDING REMARKS – FREIGHT TRANSPORT SECTOR
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
Increasing demand for freight transport services Increasing fuel efficiency for freight transport vehicles, Increasing efficiency in the use of freight transport vehicles, Increasing intermodality, leading to different modal split.
CONCLUDING REMARKS – FREIGHT TRANSPORT SECTOR
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
- Modelling of energy use in freight transport should consider the following indicators:
Freight transport demand (ton-km/capita, veh-km/capita) Freight transport modal split Average length of haul Load factor Handling factor Freight transport vehicle fuel consumption
CONCLUDING REMARKS – FREIGHT TRANSPORT SECTOR
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
- Major drivers of the broader environment affecting the passenger transport sector are:
Growth in affluence Globalisation, European integration and market deregulation Growing economies of scale Declining residential densities
A trend for increased mobility (in terms of the number and length of trips), coupled with a trend for faster and more flexible realization of mobility needs and an increase in the use of private automobiles, will continue to be observed.

- The provision and use of passenger transport services demonstrates the following characteristics:
Use of more energy efficient private automobiles, Increase in the more efficient use of private automobiles through more effective traffic management, Use of innovative demand management policies and measures, Substitution of travel by communication services, Efforts to redirect trips from road and air to environment-friendly public transport .
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
- Scenarios should consider the following trends: :
Increasing demand for passenger transport services, Increasing fuel efficiency of private automobiles, More efficient use of automobiles, Introduction of policies and concepts for more efficient travel demand management.
CONCLUDING REMARKS – PASSENGER TRANSPORT SECTOR
ATHENS UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS LABORATORY (TRANSLOG)
- Modelling of energy use in passenger transport should consider the following indicators:
Passenger transport system demand (pax-km) Modal split per transport mode (pax-km/mode) Vehicle occupancy rate Average length of trips Passenger car fuel consumption
