“…The inequalities of rural areas, income, and travel time influence the decision to maintain the transportation infrastructure in its current state [62], highlighting the currently increased percentage in ICE vehicle sales [61]. Also, for ICE engines, the average operating energy in kilojoules per passenger-kilometers is approximately 4 times higher than electric vehicles at the same average speed [63]. Being reliable and providing an extended travel range, this non-sustainable transportation solution might still be manufactured for 20 to 30 years in the future [64,65].…”

“…The energy consumption per passenger-kilometer [63] shows a greater performance for hyperloop and railway vehicles than for electric vehicles. In some cases, such as Dubai-Abu Dhabi and Chicago-Pittsburgh Hyperloop systems, the operating energy is reduced for transporting passengers at a proportional speed, involving corresponding operating energy.…”

“…Considering the ongoing climate events and based on the data from [63], the reduction in energy consumption for two hyperloop infrastructures in contrast to road electric vehicles represents only a small quantity. This might not overcome the generated energy using fossil fuel for operating the hyperloop combined with the resulting energy consumption from building the extended transportation infrastructure before a possible climate collapse.…”

Recently, major climate events highlighted the increasing need to use sustainable technologies in the transportation domain. Energy production infrastructure, storage, and propulsion systems still rely on non-sustainable technology for economic growth. Therefore, this study reviews the modern transportation propulsion systems and transportation infrastructure components, describing the possible outcomes for several future directions based on prototypes and study advances. The in-production vehicles were reviewed for providing immediate, robust, and renewable solutions for the existing non-sustainable transportation infrastructure. The study continues with extended-capability vehicles and their limitations and vulnerability based on the current infrastructural circumstances. An alternative energy transfer infrastructure has been concluded to possibly provide the necessary capabilities to approach a neutral carbon footprint and mitigate ongoing climate adverse events. The hypothetical prototype uses distance energy transfer to bypass the described environmental constraints and provide a direction for achieving a possibly sustainable and economically evolving infrastructure.

“…In June 2017, an agreement was signed for the joint development of hyperloop between Seoul and Busan, South Korea [28]. On November 8, 2020, at the Dev Loop test site in Las Vegas, Nevada, Virgin Hyperloop conducted the first successful passenger transportation test using hyperloop technology with two company employees, where the unit reached a maximum speed of 172 km/h [29].…”

The ecological situation in the resorts of the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus and the Crimea cannot but cause concerns. Once these resorts were positioned as climatic ones with a strongly marked therapeutic and health-improving climate. Today, we are no longer talking about the healing properties of the climate of these regions. But it is possible to preserve these regions for future generations as centers of medical and health tourism. One of the factors negatively affecting the ecology of the Black Sea resort areas is the expansion of vehicles with internal combustion engines. Waste exhaust gases from running engines of a huge number of motor vehicles that have appeared in recent years on the Black Sea coast (and not only in the summer holiday season) cause irreparable harm to the ecology of popular resort areas. Substantiation of the possibility of creating a zone free of vehicles with internal combustion engines in the resorts of the Black Sea coast of the Crimea and the Caucasus. To achieve this goal, theoretical methods of scientific research were used: analysis, synthesis and forecasting. The analysis of foreign and domestic experience in the study of the possibility of introducing a high-speed transport system for public and freight transport hyperloop (hyperloop - Eng.) is carried out. A conceptual project for solving the transport problem of the resort regions of the Southern coast of the Crimea is proposed.
