Methodology and framework architecture for the evaluation of effects of ICT measures on CO2 emissions
conference paper
Applications of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have been identified to have a significant contribution to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the field of transport. The mechanisms by which ICT have an impact on CO2 emissions can be very complex, and calculating this impact requires various models (e.g. traffic and emission models). Today, an integrated and harmonized modeling approach for the assessment of CO2 emissions is not available, and knowledge on interactions between the required models is often missing. The aim of the Amitran project is to develop a framework for evaluation of the effects of ICT measures in traffic and transport on energy efficiency and CO2 emissions. This paper describes two of the main outcomes of the project: the outline of the methodology to evaluate CO2 effects of ICT measures and the framework architecture for this methodology.
