A-1A1a-3 - Gas cars

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in E-1A3b - Road Transportation.

Transition Elements

This activity has the following mitigation methods modelled as transition elements:

• T-1A1a-1 - Shift to electric cars
• T-1A1a-3 - Ecodriving of cars
• T-1A1a-5 - Increase journey sharing
• T-1A1a-6 - Shift from car to railway
• T-1A1a-7 - Shift to online meetings and services
• T-1A1a-8 - Shift from car to remote working
• T-1A1a-10 - Shift to walking and cycling
• T-1A1a-12 - Shift to travel by electric bus
• T-1A1a-18 - Shift to trams, light rail and subway
• T-1A1a-19 - Shift to gas cars
• T-1A1a-20 - Biofuel for gas cars
