Insights into Future Mobility
A report from the Mobility of the Future study
Publication Year: 2019
Author(s): MIT Energy Initiative
Abstract:
This report is the culmination of a three-year study to examine how the complex interactions between advanced drivetrain options, alternative fuels, refueling infrastructure, consumer choice, vehicle automation, and government policy may shape the future for personal mobility. The MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI) undertook this study in the context of its mission to explore and create solutions that will efficiently meet global energy needs while minimizing environmental impacts and mitigating climate change. The study is part of MIT’s Plan for Action on Climate Change.
The study’s focus on the movement of people via ground transportation in part reflects a recognition that this is the segment that is likely to be most strongly and rapidly affected by fast-moving developments in advanced powertrains, alternative fuels, and environmental policies. This study is designed to serve as a balanced, fact-based, and analysis-driven guide for a diverse set of stakeholders in the transportation sector, including public and private entities.
