Abstract: Abstract In the Transport White Paper, the European Commission delivers its transport strategy up to the year 2050. One of the key objectives is defined as the 60 % reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in transport by 2050. In order to achieve this objective, a number of decisive actions need to be undertaken. In comparison to other sectors, the GHG emissions in transport are predicted to increase continuously. The research has shown that behavioural changes may enable considerable energy savings and foster substantial reduction of CO2 emission.
