The road from Kyoto. Current CO2 and transport policies in the IEA (International Energy Agency).

Author(s) : IEA

Type of monograph: Report

Summary

This report is part of a series of forthcoming IEA publications addressing domestic policies and measures to reduce CO2 emissions. More than 27% of total carbon dioxide emissions in OECD countries is produced by the transport sector, and there are still few signs that transportation energy use is peaking. Without new action, the prospects for reductions in CO2 emissions from this sector look bleak. It reviews transport-related CO2 abatement policies in six IEA countries: Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the USA. It focuses on past, recent and potential future policies and the policy context in each country and provides a comprehensive description of selected key policy elements.
