STRATEGIC FACTORS INFLUENCING PUBLIC INVESTMENT IN ENERGY EFFICIENT MOBILITY: LOAD FACTORS IN VEHICLES, CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS FOR INNOVATION, URBAN DESIGN CONSTRAINTS, MARKET BEHAVIOR

The strategy for achieving energy savings by the coordination of transportation facilities with urban development is examined. Many of the high density buildings are located in areas of high accessibility or in concentrations large enough to create their own mini corridor and thus attract supporting services. But there has been little coordination in the planning of these housing and transportation facilities. Quantitative evaluation of several scenarios discussing energy and related impacts is presented.
