철도 분야 온실가스 저감방안 사례 분석 연구

초록

Transportations are representative sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Advanced countries (especially, EU and Japan etc.) have performed several efforts to decrease GHG released from railroad. In this study, we investigated the reduction methods of GHG in railroad industry. The GHG emissions in railroad are mainly caused by the energy consumption during operation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop technologies for the increase of energy efficiency and the application of clean energy such as solar and wind energy instead of diesel. From these studies, we can establish various strategies to reduce GHG efficiently in Korean railroad.
