This document summarizes the results of modeling energy demand from India's transport sector using a bottom-up national transport demand model. It finds that energy consumption by the transport sector in India is projected to grow seven times between 2012 and 2047 due to increasing passenger and freight transport activity. Various scenarios were modeled to reduce transport energy demand through decreasing mobility needs, shifting transport modes, increasing public transit, and improving vehicle efficiency. Significant reductions in energy demand of over 40% are possible through pursuing strategies across all of these areas simultaneously. The modeling exercise highlighted the need for better transportation data in India to improve the accuracy and robustness of such models.
This webinar was hosted on October 17, 2014 and was presented by Amit Bhatt, Strategy Head - Urban Transport, EMBARQ India. Globally, 1.4 million people die each year in road traffic crashes. India accounts for 10% of those fatalities, and the majority of victims are pedestrians and cyclists. The new (draft) Road Transport and Safety Bill 2014, a huge step up from the previous Motor Vehicles Act 1988, was published for public comment by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. Amit Bhatt, who has been actively involved in discussions around this Act, presented the details of the same, highlighting the salient features and what it would mean for India if this bill were to be passed. The webinar addressed key issues relating to the current situation of road transport and safety in India, and showcased a comparison of the existing Motor Vehicles Act and the proposed new one. Amit also discussed the key provisions of the new Bill, its possible impact, and the road ahead.

A study of sustainable transportation system in ahmedabad and delhiIJARIIT
This paper on sustainable urban transport attempts to overview an all-inclusive set of indicators which are taken up
by planners, authorities in order to help cities for developing an integrated and sustainable transportation system. Developing
countries like India, where unplanned urbanization and unparalleled growth in motorization have led to increased focus on
sustainable use of mass transit systems like commuter rails and bus transportation. An integrated transportation strategy is
most needed so that these modes of transport are integrated efficiently to facilitate the sustainable transportation. The vision of
planners is to ensure easy access, safe, affordable, quick, comfortable, reliable and sustainable mobility for all sections of the
society in our cities. The present transport system in most of the Indian cities is stressed under an urban environment which is
made up of different sub-systems. Hence it is obvious to understand how these sub systems perform in order to have a
sustainable mass-transit transportation network. The various modes of urban transportation – BRTS, Metro, Bicycle-sharing,
usage of CNG fuels – currently available in the city of Ahmedabad and Delhi are discussed in the paper in the context of
urban transport characteristics, public transport, and non-motorized transport. For promoting sustainable urban transport in a
holistic manner it is equally important to understand the social, economic and environmental sustainability of each of these
sub-systems.
Mobility & Energy Futures Series: transport consumes a fifth of global energy and has a near-exclusive reliance on petroleum. As such it has an important role to play in the Energy Trilemma of reducing energy consumption and associated greenhouse gas emission, creating an energy system built on secure supplies and developing the system in ways which are affordable.
Addressing the Energy Trilemma in the transport and mobility sector is especially challenging due to the continued growth in demand for the movement of goods and people, the technical, regulatory and social challenges of moving away from an oil based system of mobility and a complex and fragmented set of stakeholders required to work together to deliver change.
Drawing on the expertise and opinions of the University of Leeds academics from different disciplines, this series will highlight the drivers, gaps and opportunities in reducing the energy consumption and carbon emissions from the transport sector in future. This is the inaugurating briefing in the series.

The public transport in most of the cities are dependent on buses, auto rikshaws, cycle rikshaws which are not able to meet the demand, prone to accidents, delays & traffic jams. The cities need to create an efficient and affordable public transport services. The private sector may be invited through PPP to develop an integrated public transport system in a city. The private sector may charge an appropriate user fee (fare) from the users and earn revenue from commercial activities like advertising, renting & leasing of commercial spaces etc to cover his capital and recurring cost.

BAU levels of passenger transport energy
consumption (mtoe)
• 73% of the present
passenger traffic moves on
buses and omni-buses
consuming 40% of the
energy
• Cars and Jeeps handle
only about 6% of the traffic
but consume over 18% of
the energy
By 2047
• Energy consumption by
personalized modes of
transport continue to increase
• Aviation is expected to drive
2.5% of the mobility -
consuming over 8% of the
energy of passenger transport
• Share of rail based transport
to marginally decline (14% to
12%)
15. Methods of reducing energy demand
for passenger transport considered
Considered four possible ways of reducing the energy
demand for passenger transport
1. Reducing the total demand for passenger mobility
Better planning and strategic urban development to cut
down travel
2. Shifting mobility to more energy efficient modes
Mode shift from air and road to rail based transport
3. Increasing the share of road based public transport
More urban bus services and introduction of transport
demand measures to reduce private vehicle use
4. Introduction of energy efficient road vehicles
Increasing the energy efficiency of private road vehicles
by introduction of electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicles
15
16. Transport trajectories
considered for the IESS 2047
Six different line levers considered for the transport sector
4 passenger transport lines
2 freight transport lines
4 different levels under each lever
16
17. Reducing levels of passenger
transport demand
Four levels of passenger transport demand considered
Level 1: Business as usual levels of demand
Increased economic growth, increased access to transport
Continuous increase in the annual distance travelled per person
Level 2: Moderate effort (~10% demand reduction)
Increase in the number of activity centers across the country
Increasing urbanization leading to reduced migration trips
A reduction of per capita mobility demands in smart cities
Level 3: Dedicated effort (~20% demand reduction)
Aggressive use of ITES applications reducing the demand for travel
Corporate and industrial personnel travel planning
Level 4: Herculean effort (~30% demand reduction)
Herculean effort scenario, with incentive schemes to reduce commute trips
Work – residence – recreation trips better organized to reduce travel demand
17
18. Improving the share of the
railways in passenger mobility
Trajectories visualized progressively increasing the share of railways
Level 1: Business as usual mode shares
Continuous increase in the share of personalized road vehicles
Increasing energy intensity for passenger transport
Level 2: Moderate effort
Increased focus on rail based transport (metro, train-sets, rapid rail)
Focus on increasing the share of railways
Level 3: Dedicated effort
Railway projects given top priority in planning – few HSR corridors and
RRTS across various urban centers
Share of railways improves further
Level 4: Herculean effort
Metros and RRTS become commonplace across large urban centers
HSR to complement air travel on longer distances across the country
18
19. Other levers to reduce the
sector’s energy use
Movement to public transport and efficient vehicles
Better urban designs and plans allowing increased use of public
transport
Increased of efficient vehicles on electric and hybrid traction
Freight transport demand reduction
Improved use of logistic planning in freight mobility to reduce
redundant freight movements
Growth of industrial clusters thereby allowing combined
movement of similar traffic
Improved freight transport mode choice
Incentivize the movement of freight from road to rail
Improved last mile connectivity for railway services
Railways moves from being a mobility provider to a complete
transporter
19
20. Large reductions in energy
possible using all the levers
About 43% reduction possible from the 2047 energy
consumption levels
Combined options: Demand reduction, mode
choice, public vehicles, efficient electric vehicles
20
43% reduction
21. Limitations, lessons learnt
and the way forward
Outlining the issues for building activity based
transport sector energy and emissions estimation
models
21
22. Limitations of the activity based energy
estimation methodology
Methodology useful for a closed system
such as the domestic transport sector
Difficult to implement under porous
systems such as states or cities/urban
centers
Difficult to determine appropriate boundary
conditions for non-stationary sector like
transport
Requires a large number of data items
to increase the robustness of the model
22
23. Lessons learnt from developing a transport
demand and energy estimation model
Useful methodology for estimating impacts of
mode and technology choice changes at a
macro-national level
Tool is easily customizable to evaluate the
impacts of various kinds of policies/programs
Acute limitation in the availability of data
related to transport use in India
Identified a very long list of data items that
could be useful for increasing the robustness
of the model
