Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we evaluate a possibility of the modal shift from road to seaway using a ferry under two scenarios, conventional vehicles and electric vehicles. We apply a transportation model to all the ferry routes among sea ports in Japan and the modal shares between seaway and road are estimated. The impacts of the modal shift on the carbon dioxide emissions are also estimated. As a case study in Mikawa port, the method for evaluating the economic impacts on the port's region is shown.
