Energy consumption in rural transportation in India

A.R. Rao

Energy, 1985, vol. 10, issue 5, 681-682

Abstract: Energy consumption in rural transportation has been computed, taking into account the energy embodied in vehicles or bullocks, as well as the fuels or feeds and food (of operators). Bullock cart transport consumes over four times more energy than vehicles. However, animal transport will continue to be preferred because of its availability.
