Utilizing the Alternative Fuels in Transportation

Original language description

In the developed countries, transportation represents one of the main factors the expansion of which influences the environment negatively. The main issue is the road transportation, the negative effects of which are primarily high emissions and traffic noise. Motor vehicles equipped with combustion engines significantly contribute to the excess dependency of Europe on imported fuels, as well as to greenhouse gas emission and global air pollution. The ever stricter emission standards for motor vehicles and standards for quality of driving fuels help decrease the emissions, however, this is not sufficient considering the increasing transportation density. By this reason, new alternative fuels and transportation means are continuously being looked for. The above mentioned issues have led to the global discussion on improvement of alternative energetic systems and fuels for passenger and goods transportation. Supporting the usage of alternative fuels is one of the basic pillars of sustainable transportation leading to ecologically and economically favourable solutions. In the Czech Republic, the usage of alternative fuels is still not sufficiently widespread. However, some towns and cities have started to use alternative fuels vehicles and evaluate the economics of their operation. The paper is focused on characterization of technical-economic and ecological aspects of application of alternative fuels for motor vehicles in the transportation within the CZ.
