內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介：
Transportation is the lifeline of the world economy. However, it is only one of the major contributors to the world’s energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Globally, transportation is responsible for 60% of oil consumption. In Singapore, it accounts for 20% of primary energy consumption and total carbon emissions. This talk will discuss the future of electric vehicles (EV) considering both policy and technological developments. Singapore’s EV test-bed programme will be introduced with policy questions and research possibilities. Finally, the future transportation solution with high efficiency and low emissions will be discussed to achieve a reduction of fuel consumption by 40% from the BAU scenario.
