TRANSPORT AND ENERGY IN AUSTRALIA. PART 2 - CONSUMPTION BY CATEGORIES

This report investigates the current level of energy consumption by various categories of Australian transport, and examines the present Australian transport task and the associated levels of energy consumption. The efficiency of each major mode of transport is assessed in terms of energy consumption - both direct and indirect. The report is a development of work done in a previous related report entitled: "transport and energy in Australia: phase 1 - review", which reviewed recent Australian and overseas literature on the subject.
