Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Green transportation, generally referring to people traveling by foot, bicycle, bus, or rail, is widely considered an effective solution for reducing the transportation system's fossil fuel dependency and emissions. People traveling by private low-pollution vehicles, such as electric vehicles, hybrid.

electric vehicles, natural gas vehicles, and hydrogen-powered vehicles, are also part of green transportation. However, the assessment of energy saving and emission reduction in green transportation faces a challenge with technical progress and energy transition. Therefore, it is necessary to identify factors that influence the environmental assessment of green transportation under the present economic and social conditions. In response to such an issue, we are organizing a Special Issue of Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050) in this area.

We invite colleagues to submit research papers, communications, and review articles for our consideration. We welcome the submission of papers including, but not limited to, the following topics:

  • Energy saving and emissions reduction for green transport modes;
  • Carbon neutrality and green transportation;
  • Life cycle assessment of green transport modes;
  • Environmental impacts of transportation electrification;
  • Environmental Rebound Effect of green transport;
  • Determinants of green transport mode adoption;
  • Policies for green transportation.

We look forward to receiving your response, and if there is any further information you require, please do not hesitate to contact us.
