Eco efficiency tool for intermodal terminals

to enable terminal operators to accurately calculate their current GHG performance,

identify where their “hot spots” are with regard to energy consumption and GHG emission and

to determine what impacts different measures in the context of a terminal have, either in an ex ante (Scenario) or ex post (monitoring) perspective.

2012-05-09Chart 26

Eco efficiency tool for intermodal terminals

The data used for upstream processes such as the electricity supply or fuel supply (diesel, natural gas) is taken from the European Life Cycle data base operated by JRC for which PE is also the data provider. For emissions from road based vehicles PE uses in our GaBi software the same source used by TREMOVE or Copert 4.

The compiled data and results from the eco efficiency tool can be made available for COFRET so they can increase the robustness of their tool by using for the submodule terminals the results from Hubways.

It goes without saying that for the development of the eco efficiency calculator international standards such as the CEN 16258 or 14067 will be applied.
