Methodologies for Analyzing GHG Emissions from Transportation

There are a variety of tools and methods available to transportation practitioners for analyzing, measuring, and projecting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These include tools and methods to estimate energy consumption and GHG emissions for purposes of inventory development and for quantifying the effects of transportation programs, projects, technologies, or strategies. Results are often used to help guide policy and planning decisions aimed at emission reductions.
