    1. Energy consumption and truck freight transport demand: Is Denmark a special case? David Bonilla (PhD) and Kim Salling (PhD) TSU and St. Anne’s College, Oxford University Technical University of Denmark

    2. Aim of the study 1. Examine freight system efficiency and energy use of truck freight 2. Assess the possibility of decoupling freight from GDP 3. Assess decoupling CO2 (truck freight) from GDP 4. Estimate freight cost and output elasticity for 5 sectors (1980-2005) using data (spatial, weight, economic)

    3. Why do we monitor Freight transport energy use? 1. Question: why monitor transport activity/ and energy use? Answer: 3. Improve transport activity resilience 4. Reduce CO2 and non CO2 emissions; mitigate GHG emissions 5. Reduce macroeconomic imbalance from shock of high oil prices, 6. Improve resource efficiency and freight system efficiency 7. Cost savings from investing in fuel efficiency freight ops. & logistical practices 8. Value of CO2 emissions reductions 9. Value of non co2 emissions reduction of truck freight

    4. Freight transport (weight and distance metric)

    5. Denmark, U.S & China freight moved (bn. ton-km)
