Long-Term Forecast of Energy and Fuels Demand Towards a Sustainable Road Transport Sector in Ecuador (2016–2035): A LEAP Model Application

Abstract: The total energy demand in the transport sector represented 48.80% of the total consumption in Ecuador throughout 2016, where 89.87% corresponded to the road transport sector. Therefore, it is crucial to analyze the future behavior of this sector and assess the economic and environmental measures towards sustainable development. Consequently, this study analyzed: (1) the total energy demand for each vehicle class and fuel type; (2) the GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions and air pollutants NO x and PM 10 ; and (3) … Show more

“…This type of assessment that is used by Leopold's matrices is a type of instrument that will allow foreseeing negative aspects of the activities carried out in any project such as the construction phase, operation phase, and completion phase, stating the most important in the study area. [14], [15]. As a point of comparison, the impacts generated by each action carried out in the project are verified, whether it generates impacts on the socio-economic, physical or biological environment and what type of environmental impact they are immersed.…”

“…Alternatively, Hu et al [23] proposed a cost-effective energy consumption management strategy to monitor and manage the fuel cell/battery ingesting in a vehicle. Recently, Rivera-Gonzalez et al [24] studied the energy and fuel demands in Ecuador's sustainable road transport for 2016-2035. The result shows that the energy demand for the chosen scenario decreased by 12.14%.…”

“…In the transport industry, the world's ultimate consumption of liquid fuels is expected to account for around 55% by 2040. The top consumer share from 2015 thus remains unchanged [1]. Final energy demand in Indonesia also dominated the industrial and transportation sector in 2018.…”
