Research on construction of urban low carbon transport system

Urban transport system is the major consumption of carbon-based fuels, and it is increasingly being highlighted as the sector which contributes least to CO₂ emission reduction targets. For the purpose of constructing the energy-saving, environment-friendly and harmonious-developing society, this paper describes a new measure for the analysis of the construction about urban low carbon transport system (ULCTS). The method involves the analysis of utility, low emission vehicles, urban planning, energy, resources, walking and cycling. The model of ULCTS is based on maximization of journey utility and energy conservation. This paper develops the ULCTS which consider the role of transport sector in reducing CO₂ emission in Shijiazhuang city. It argues that strategic CO₂ emission reduction targets are very ambitious relative to current progress and it need to act more effectively to achieve the target. The result of the present work implied that compared with other methods established based on pure technology, ULCTS can get better quality solutions by reducing fuel cost and emission effects simultaneously.
