Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

3.1.1 Emissions in transportation

Welcome to the next part of the course! So far we have been looking at the challenge of decarbonizing the building sector. In module 3 and 4, Dr. Natalia Barbour will be explaining how we can decarbonize the transport sector and address transport related environmental concerns.

In the first video of module 3, you will learn about this module’s agenda as well as global emission trends. Let’s dive straight into the content – specifically, how the different impacts of the transportation sector can be categorised.

Key takeaways:

  1. The goal of transport sector decarbonization is not only to create opportunities for a more sustainable and clean future but also to improve and innovate the ways in which we move around.
  2. The impacts of the transportation sector can be divided into direct, indirect and cumulative impacts.
