T-1A1a-A-5 - LPG cars
Definition¶
This emission source is defined by the IPCC in E-1A3b - Road Transportation.
Sustainability Category: Red¶
This activity significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and undermines climate mitigation efforts. The activity should be phased out or fundamentally transformed, with financing directed toward decommissioning, replacement with sustainable alternatives, or radical decarbonization where elimination is not immediately feasible.
Transition Elements¶
This activity has the following mitigation options modelled as transition elements:
- T-1A1a-TE-1 - Shift to electric cars
- T-1A1a-TE-3 - Ecodriving of cars
- T-1A1a-TE-5 - Increase journey sharing
- T-1A1a-TE-6 - Shift from car to railway
- T-1A1a-TE-7 - Shift to online meetings and services
- T-1A1a-TE-8 - Shift from car to remote working
- T-1A1a-TE-10 - Shift to walking and cycling
- T-1A1a-TE-11 - Shift to electric bikes
- T-1A1a-TE-12 - Shift to travel by electric bus
- T-1A1a-TE-18 - Shift to trams, light rail and subway
- T-1A1a-TE-22 - Improved urban planning
