Awarded in competitive auctions, these concessions were supposed to combine private sector efficiency with rent dissipation brought about by competition. Yet something did not go quite right, as concessions were plagued with opportunistic renegotiations, most of them at the expense of taxpayers. This book is a major contribution toward understanding what went wrong and what should be done differently in the future to reap the potential benefits of infrastructure reform and private participation in infrastructure provision. It begins by analyzing a rich data set on more than 1,000 infrastructure concessions, uncovering a series of puzzling stylized facts. It then considers alternative explanations for the patterns it has uncovered, and concludes with a series of insightful policy proposals aimed at avoiding the common mistakes and make concessions to efficiently contribute to economic growth and poverty reduction.

It is one in a series of publications on vehicle-related pollution and control measures prepared by the World Bank in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme to underpin the Bank ' s overall objective of promoting transport development that is environmentally sustainable and least damaging to human health and welfare. Chapter 1 surveys vehicle emission standards adopted in various countries, emphasizing the international system of standards employed in North America and Europe. Chapter 2 discusses the test procedures used to quantify vehicle emissions in order to verify compliance and estimate emissions actually used. Chapter 3 describes the engine and aftertreatment technologies developed to enable new vehicles to comply with emission standards, as well as the costs and other impacts of these technologies. That measures to control emissions from in-use vehicles are an essential complement to emission standards for new vehicles is the subject explored in Chapter 4. Lastly, the role of fuels in reducing emissions is reviewed in Chapter 5, which discusses both the benefits of reformulating conventional gasoline and diesel fuels and the potential benefits of alternative cleaner fuels.

The number of urban areas with populations exceeding 1 million was 43 in 1994 and is expected to increase to 52 in 2010. Airborne pollutant levels in many urban areas far exceed the national, regional, or local standards and World Health Organization guidelines. The main source of air pollution in these urban areas is motor vehicles, especially those which are old and poorly maintained. Ozone, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide are pollutants of greatest concern. This report analyzes the pollutants emitted by motor vehicles, their effects, and measures targeted to vehicles, fuels, and transport management to control them. Case studies for seven urban areas Mexico City, Santiago, Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, and Santafe de Bogota are presented to illustrate how these measures have been used in the region and how they can be strengthened.

Wang and Wheeler analyze China's experience with the water pollution levy, an emissions charge system that covers hundreds of thousands of factories. The levy experience has not been studied systematically, but anecdotal critiques have suggested that the system is arbitrarily administered and ineffective in controlling pollution. Critics view the levy as a local financing mechanism, but ineffective as a regulatory instrument. Enforcement is thought to vary widely, so that factories in different regions face different penalties for polluting. And it is widely believed that the levy provides little incentive to control pollution because official rates are below marginal abatement costs. Wang and Wheeler test the conventional critique of the levy system using solid new province level data for 1987-93. Their results suggest that the water pollution levy system is neither arbitrary nor ineffective. Across provinces and over time, variations in the effective levy rate are well explained by proxies for local valuation of environmental damage and community capacity to enforce local norms. During 1987-93, rapid development in many provinces led to sharp increases in the effective rate. Their results also suggest that the emissions intensity of Chinese industy was highly responsive to those increases, because marginal abatement costs were often lower than levy rates. And from 1987 to 1993, provincial pollution intensities fell at a median rate of 50 percent, and total discharges at a median rate of 22 percent. The results suggest several lessons for regulators in developing countries: ° Local enforcement of national standards will determine the effective price of pollution in each area. Such regional heterogeneity is natural and legitimate. ° The locally enforced price of pollution rises with industrial development. ° Early in the regulatory process, industrial emissions intensity is highly responsive to changes in the price of pollution, mainly because marginal costs are often quite low in low to medium abatement ranges. In China, provincial adjustments of effective levy rates and other regulatory instruments have been sufficient to induce sharp declines in emissions intensity and reductions in total emissions from registered factories during a period of rapid industrial growth. This paper -- a product of the Environment, Infrastructure, and Agriculture Division, Policy Research Department -- is part of a larger effort in the department to identify appropriate policies for environmental regulation in developing countries. The study was funded by the Bank's Research Support Budget under research project The Economics of Industrial Pollution Control in Developing Countries (RPO 680-20).

Over the last decades, several studies have focused on understanding what drives the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and to what extent the difference in several characteristics – especially the limited driving range and limited charging options - makes it a feasible transport alternative compared to conventional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICVs). A large range of studies analyse the potential use of EVs for everyday mobility in households, based on data on ICV  journeys from national travel surveys (Hjorthol et al. 2014; Christensen et al. 2010). Greaves et al. 2014 used a model for energy consumption and recharging to assess the extent to which current conventional car journeys measured with GPS could be met by an EV. All studies above found that a large share of the revealed journeys are short journeys that potentially could be conducted with an EV. However such studies do not reveal to what extent households would actually use an EV for travel when the driving range is not a problem. This is relevant as the choice between an EV and an ICV may not be always in favour of an EV as other variables may also influence the choice between these vehicle options. literature contains a large number of consumer choice studies, where it has been shown that a number of factors, e.g. purchase price, driving range and charging infrastructure has an effect on individual’s stated preferences for EVs (see e.g. Bunch et al. 1993; Potoglou & Kanaroglou 2007; Glerum et al. 2014). Another approach to analyse what vehicle type would be preferred applies Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) models. This approach uses travel surveys or GPS data (e.g. Plotz et al. 2014) to calculate the lowest cost for a range of alternatives over some period of time. While costs are certainly important variables to consider, there are still other factors that should be considered when studying the potential of EVs. Here we advance this research through an analysis of what factors that are important in the choice between an EV and an ICV for households that in a period of three months had access to both vehicle types. This allows us to make a more complete analysis compared to the analyses mentioned above that only look at the marginal effects of either range or cost. We utilize a dataset describing household travel with either a private ICV or an EV that was available to the household for three months in connection with a large-scale EV demonstration project in Denmark. In this period, the household had access to both cars but they were encouraged to use the EV as the primary car. ICV trips were logged with a GPS device one month before and after the EV was received while the EV trips were logged during the full three months where the household was participating in the project. These data allow us to address the question: What are the factors that influence the choice between an EV and an ICV for home-based journeys? As it is usually not possible to change to the other car on the different trip-legs of a journey, we merge the observed trips into home-based journeys. After a data cleaning process and the merging of the trips into journeys, the data used consisted of 11107 journeys of which 10554 journeys were conducted within the same day. In table 1 below we show the descriptive statistics for journeys that begin and end on the same day for the two alternatives. For the ICV we also show the description of the journeys that took place before the EV was received. As expected, it is seen that the household journeys conducted with the ICV after the EV becomes available on average have the most stops, are longest, and take the most time whereas the journeys conducted with the EV have the fewest stops, are shortest, and have the shortest duration. In between these are the ICV journeys before the EV was available. Tabel 1: Within one day journeys for the ICV alternative before and after the EV was received and for the EV.

In order to model this choice, we set up a discrete choice model. We assume that for each journey, the distance and the number of activities (i.e. trips) is fixed. This means that these will not change if the non-observed alternative was chosen. In order to calculate the remaining variables for the non-observed alternative, we calculated average values from those journeys where this alternative was chosen within specific intervals of the distance of the journey. results of the model estimation are reported in table 2. All parameters are seen to have the expected sign. For the total journey time we did not find any difference in preferences between the alternatives. However, the net drivetime has a smaller marginal disbenefit for the EV compared to the ICV. This might be due to the circumstances of the demonstration project that the participants are accepting a longer driving time because they were told to use the EV as the primary car. Furthermore, we find a lower preference for EV as the number of triplegs, the average tripleg length, and the necessary number of charges increases. We also find a disbenefit if the journey takes place in the winter months which is most probably due to the reduced EV driving range in cold conditions. Finally we obtain a positive parameter for the households located in cities. These initial results show have our data can add to the current research on the use of EVs for everyday mobility. We plan to extend the current work with models that include more variables that can explain the choice between EV and ICV, e.g. related to weather conditions. Furthermore, we plan to investigate the journeys that took place over several days and to model journeys separately where the EV and the ICV were used at the same time by the same household.

Cities globally are grappling with the negative externalities of car travel and are therefore striving to move towards a more sustainable urban transportation system. The introduction and popularity of new personal transport modes, such as e-scooters and electric bicycles, could potentially accelerate this transition as they become more commonplace and are accepted into regulatory frameworks. The integration of these new modes and vehicles into public transport systems, for example, could enhance accessibility and lead to potential modal shifts away from private car use. In order to assess the potential for change that micromobility holds, it is key to study these new modes in the context of access and egress trips to and from public transport. This paper presents an extensive systematic literature review of studies that focus specifically on the integration of micromobility and public transport systems and is, to the knowledge of the authors, the first review focusing on this specific aspect of micromobility. This paper offers an understanding of how this topic has been studied to date, which factors and aspects have been considered and analysed, which causalities have been identified in the research, in addition to identifying gaps in the literature and providing guidance for future research on this topic. Furthermore, this paper provides a comprehensive collection and critical discussion of suggestions and recommendations included in the literature which are analysed in this study, aimed at improving and further promoting the effective integration of micromobility and public transport services.

Livestock production impacts air and water quality, ocean health, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on regional to global scales and it is the largest use of land globally. Quantifying the environmental impacts of the various livestock categories, mostly arising from feed production, is thus a grand challenge of sustainability science. Here, we quantify land, irrigation water, and reactive nitrogen (Nr) impacts due to feed production, and recast published full life cycle GHG emission estimates, for each of the major animal-based categories in the US diet. Our calculations reveal that the environmental costs per consumed calorie of dairy, poultry, pork, and eggs are mutually comparable (to within a factor of 2), but strikingly lower than the impacts of beef. Beef production requires 28, 11, 5, and 6 times more land, irrigation water, GHG, and Nr, respectively, than the average of the other livestock categories. Preliminary analysis of three staple plant foods shows two- to sixfold lower land, GHG, and Nr requirements than those of the nonbeef animal-derived calories, whereas irrigation requirements are comparable. Our analysis is based on the best data currently available, but follow-up studies are necessary to improve parameter estimates and fill remaining knowledge gaps. Data imperfections notwithstanding, the key conclusion--that beef production demands about 1 order of magnitude more resources than alternative livestock categories--is robust under existing uncertainties. The study thus elucidates the multiple environmental benefits of potential, easy-to-implement dietary changes, and highlights the uniquely high resource demands of beef.

BACKGROUND: Many youth fail to meet the recommended guidelines for physical activity. Walking and cycling, forms of active travel, have the potential to contribute significantly towards overall physical activity levels. Recent research examining the associations between physical activity and the environment has shown that environmental factors play a role in determining behaviour in children and adolescents. However, links between the environment and active travel have received less attention. METHODS: Twenty four studies were identified which examined the associations between the environment (perceived or objectively measured) and active travel among youth aged 5-18 years. Findings were categorised according to the location of the environmental measure examined; attributes of the neighbourhood, destination and the route between home and destination. RESULTS: Results from the reviewed studies indicated that youth active travel is positively associated with social interactions, facilities to assist active travel and urban form in the neighbourhood as well as shorter route length and road safety en-route. A conceptual framework is presented which highlights the associations between active travel behaviours and environmental factors, drawing upon both existing and hypothesised relationships. CONCLUSION: We provide a review of the available literature and present a novel theoretical framework that integrates the environment into the wider decision making process around travel choices for children and adolescents. Further work should explore associations where gaps in understanding have been identified, and account for the main moderators of behaviour so hypothesised associations can be confirmed.

The mobility challenges of the developing world are considerably different than those in wealthier, advanced countries, and so are the challenges of coordinating transportation and land use. Rapid population growth, poverty and income disparities, overcrowded urban cores, poorly designed road networks, spatial mismatches between housing and jobs, deteriorating environmental conditions, and economic losses from extreme traffic by congestion are among the more vexing challenges faced by developing cities that could be assuaged through improved coordination of transportation and urban development. This is underscored by examples reviewed in this paper from South Asia, Southeast Asia, China, India, Africa, and South America. It is concluded that whatever is done to improve transportation and land-use integration must be pro-poor. The cardinal features of integrated and sustainable transport and urbanism everywhere---accessible urban activities and safe, attractive walking and cycling environs---are particularly vital to the welfare and prosperity of urbanites in the world's poorest countries.

The transportation sector is one of the major sources of global carbon emissions. In this study, a bibliometric analysis was conducted using CiteSpace and VOSviewer for articles published in the field of transportation carbon emissions (TCEs) between 1997 and 2023. From this analysis, our research shows that: (a) the number of articles on TCEs has grown rapidly since 2010; (b) China, the United States, and the United Kingdom are important research forces, with the Helmholtz Association of German having the highest number of publications; (c) Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment is the most cited journal in this field; (d) the current research hotspots mainly focus on theory and methodological approaches, low-carbon travel, green supply chain management, and carbon emission drivers; (e) while, scenario analysis, data envelopment analysis, and vehicle routing problem are popular keywords that have been used in the research field of TCEs in recent years. Finally, using current research trends, our study also proposes a series of future research endeavours for the field of TCEs.

Experts predict that new automobiles will be capable of driving themselves under limited conditions within 5-10 years, and under most conditions within 10-20 years. Automation may affect road vehicle energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in a host of ways, positive and negative, by causing changes in travel demand, vehicle design, vehicle operating profiles, and choices of fuels. In this paper, we identify specific mechanisms through which automation may affect travel and energy demand and resulting GHG emissions and bring them together using a coherent energy decomposition framework. We review the literature for estimates of the energy impacts of each mechanism and, where the literature is lacking, develop our own estimates using engineering and economic analysis. We consider how widely applicable each mechanism is, and quantify the potential impact of each mechanism on a common basis: the percentage change it is expected to cause in total GHG emissions from light-duty or heavy-duty vehicles in the U.S. Our primary focus is travel related energy consumption and emissions, since potential lifecycle impacts are generally smaller in magnitude. We explore the net effects of automation on emissions through several illustrative scenarios, finding that automation might plausibly reduce road transport GHG emissions and energy use by nearly half – or nearly double them – depending on which effects come to dominate. We also find that many potential energy-reduction benefits may be realized through partial automation, while the major energy/emission downside risks appear more likely at full automation. We close by presenting some implications for policymakers and identifying priority areas for further research.

This article aimed to demonstrate that hedonic values are important for understanding environmentally relevant beliefs, preferences, and actions, next to egoistic, altruistic, and biospheric values. In four studies, the authors found consistent support for their hypothesis that hedonic, egoistic, altruistic, and biospheric values can be distinguished empirically, suggesting that the distinction between the four types of values is not only theoretically meaningful but also recognized by individuals. Importantly, in line with the authors’ expectations, hedonic values appeared to be significantly and negatively related to a range of environmentally relevant attitudes, preferences, and behaviors, even when the other values were controlled for. This suggests that it is indeed important to include hedonic values in environmental studies and that interventions aimed to promote proenvironmental actions should consider hedonic consequences of actions, as these may be important barriers for behavior change.

Mobility, transport and the physical forms of urban areas are closely bound up with each other (Cervero and Kockelman in Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment 2(3), 199–219, 1997). Urban structure plays an important role when households and businesses make mobility decisions, and to a considerable degree dictates what forms of transport may or may not be taken. Compact city form with high density and mixed use provide good preconditions for short trips and efficient public transportation, promote walking and cycling, and often render daily car use unnecessary.

This paper provides an overview of the Internet of Things (IoT) with emphasis on enabling technologies, protocols, and application issues. The IoT is enabled by the latest developments in RFID, smart sensors, communication technologies, and Internet protocols. The basic premise is to have smart sensors collaborate directly without human involvement to deliver a new class of applications. The current revolution in Internet, mobile, and machine-to-machine (M2M) technologies can be seen as the first phase of the IoT. In the coming years, the IoT is expected to bridge diverse technologies to enable new applications by connecting physical objects together in support of intelligent decision making. This paper starts by providing a horizontal overview of the IoT. Then, we give an overview of some technical details that pertain to the IoT enabling technologies, protocols, and applications. Compared to other survey papers in the field, our objective is to provide a more thorough summary of the most relevant protocols and application issues to enable researchers and application developers to get up to speed quickly on how the different protocols fit together to deliver desired functionalities without having to go through RFCs and the standards specifications. We also provide an overview of some of the key IoT challenges presented in the recent literature and provide a summary of related research work. Moreover, we explore the relation between the IoT and other emerging technologies including big data analytics and cloud and fog computing. We also present the need for better horizontal integration among IoT services. Finally, we present detailed service use-cases to illustrate how the different protocols presented in the paper fit together to deliver desired IoT services.

While the precise causes of postwar trade growth are not well understood, declines in transport costs top the lists of usual suspects. However, there is remarkably little systematic evidence documenting the decline. This paper brings to bear an eclectic mix of data in order to provide a detailed accounting of the time-series pattern of shipping costs. The ad-valorem impact of ocean shipping costs is not much lower today than in the 1950s, with technological advances largely trumped by adverse cost shocks. In contrast, air shipping costs have dropped an order of magnitude, and airborne trade has grown rapidly as a result. As a result, international trade has also experienced a significant rise in speed.

BACKGROUND: Most older adults prefer to age in place, and supporting older adults to remain in their own homes and communities is also favored by policy makers. Technology can play a role in staying independent, active and healthy. However, the use of technology varies considerably among older adults. Previous research indicates that current models of technology acceptance are missing essential predictors specific to community-dwelling older adults. Furthermore, in situ research within the specific context of aging in place is scarce, while this type of research is needed to better understand how and why community-dwelling older adults are using technology. OBJECTIVE: To explore which factors influence the level of use of various types of technology by older adults who are aging in place and to describe these factors in a comprehensive model. METHODS: A qualitative explorative field study was set up, involving home visits to 53 community-dwelling older adults, aged 68-95, living in the Netherlands. Purposive sampling was used to include participants with different health statuses, living arrangements, and levels of technology experience. During each home visit: (1) background information on the participants' chronic conditions, major life events, frailty, cognitive functioning, subjective health, ownership and use of technology was gathered, and (2) a semistructured interview was conducted regarding reasons for the level of use of technology. The study was designed to include various types of technology that could support activities of daily living, personal health or safety, mobility, communication, physical activity, personal development, and leisure activities. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze interview transcripts. RESULTS: The level of technology use in the context of aging in place is influenced by six major themes: challenges in the domain of independent living; behavioral options; personal thoughts on technology use; influence of the social network; influence of organizations, and the role of the physical environment. CONCLUSION: Older adults' perceptions and use of technology are embedded in their personal, social, and physical context. Awareness of these psychological and contextual factors is needed in order to facilitate aging in place through the use of technology. A conceptual model covering these factors is presented.
