| Research Abstract |
It is well known that automobiles affect on both energy and environmental issues. Such new energy vehicles as hybrid-engine(HE) cars and electric vehicles (EV) are recently developed to mitigate them. Methanol (MC) and fuel-cell (FC) cars are also expected in the next generation. However, the assessment of these new technologies should involve the views of whole transportation system as well as the other energy supply systems.
This study consists of two stages : (1) HE and EV are assessed on the 2-stage urban road transportation model to optimize total transportation cost and CO2 emission involving userequilibrium conditions as constraints, and (2) FC and methanol fules are evaluated in the context of long range macro system dealing with integrated fuel processes.
The results provide that new technology vehicles contribute mainly in the urban transportation, that reducing parking car on roads contributes energy and environmental issues substantially and that methanol cars will mitigate future fuel supply issues.
