ENERGY CONSERVATION, MORE WITH LESS
Transportation represents about one-quarter of the worldwide energy consumption sector and without any significant changes is forecast to remain so. Also, almost all of the transportation energy use is in the form of petroleum. This is why for a long time there have been a lot of political and economic tensions with oil supplying countries. Basically, everyone is indirectly influenced by these problems, from the big companies which are accused of lack of environmental concern to individuals having to pay too much for the current energy resources. System efficiency Reducing the fuel used in this sector is one of the highest priorities for all countries, and for that, three parameters have to be taken into consideration. The first of these is the vehicle fuel efficiency which is determined by the technical energy efficiency, the second is vehicle travel which refers to the type of travel/driving and the number of kilometers driven and the third is the vehicle population which represents the number of vehicles on the road. This equation must be constantly improved, so that companies and individuals use less at maximum efficiency. Practical solutions The environmental costs of burning petroleum products are enormous. Because of that, urgent solutions need to be taken in order to conserve it. The industry experts draw attention to:
Improving vehicle technology leading to increased vehicle energy efficiency;
Changing driver behavior to use less fuel per kilometer driven;
Reducing the distances travelled per vehicle;
Ensuring traffic and usage patterns are optimal.
Software systems can guarantee now these long-term benefits by continuously monitoring the consumption of the vehicles, bringing improvements on how energy is now consumed and anticipating future consumer costs.
All of these reductions in transportation energy use will increase the sustainability of energy resources, will bring more profit for companies and savings for the families, and will improve life and air quality.
