Abstract
Technological advancements are enabling higher levels of automation of vehicles and as such Connected and Automated Transport (CAT). This is an umbrella term for transport with increasing levels of automation facilitated by communication among vehicles (vehicle-to-vehicle or V2V) and infrastructure (vehicle-to infrastructure or V2I). Especially confined areas such as ports and terminals offer favourable environments for deploying automated trucking applications in the short term. CAT holds potential for improving sustainability and efficiency on yards, yet current baseline yard emission data is lacking. Therefore, this research aims to identify the potential impact of Connected and Automated Transport on reduction of emissions for freight transport at and to/from yards.
