Definition

Final energy consumption in passenger transport represents the energy consumption for the carriage of people within Germany by rail, by air and by road (public and private transport).

Target and intention

Transport brings with it a range of challenges. For instance, noise and air pollution impair quality of life, especially in cities, and traffic-related emissions contribute to climate change. The emission of harmful greenhouse gases is linked to the energy consumed for transport purposes.
The aim is to reduce final energy consumption in passenger transport by 15 to 20% by 2030.
