ENERGY USE IN GROUND TRANSPORTATION, FINAL REPORT, JUNE-DECEMBER 1982
Transportation systems account for approximately twenty-five percent of the country's total energy consumption. Such a large fraction on the Nation's energy resources has prompted increased awareness of the role which transportation technology plays in the area of energy consumption. Of the different transportation modes, automobiles and trucks combine to consume approximately three-quarters of all transportation energy as of 1980. The report stresses that the importance of technologies aimed at reducing these large expenditures of our Nation's resources cannot be minimized.
