Tavasszy, Lorant (author)One of the proposed approaches to decarbonize freight transport systems is to internalize the environmental costs of transport, by means of carbon emission-based taxes. The expected impact is a reduction of transport demand and an increased use of environmentally friendly transport technologies. The magnitude of the impact will depend on the...book chapter 2021

Haase, Matthias (author), Konstantinou, T. (author)Roughly 97% of the European Union (EU) building stock is not considered energy efficient, and 75–85% of it will still be in use in 2050 (Artola et al., Boosting building renovation: What potential and value for Europe? 2016). Residential buildings account for around two thirds of final energy consumption in European buildings. The rate at...conference paper 2024

Mostafavi, F. (author), Khademi, S. (author)Residential buildings are responsible for a considerable share of energy consumption and carbon emission. To decarbonize by 2050, as agreed in the Paris Climate Accord, immediate action for lowering the environmental impact of the building sector is needed. Environmental building design is a promising path, particularly during the early-stage...conference paper 2023

Nassar, Raphael Ferrari (author), Ghisolfi, Verônica (author), Annema, J.A. (author), van Binsbergen, A.J. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)The decarbonization of freight transport is currently a big challenge to tackle. One way of decarbonizing the sector is the modal shift towards the least polluting transport modes. This research aims to shed light on modal shift time dynamics in developing economies and considers whether a System Dynamics approach can assist with the policy...journal article 2023

López Prol, Javier (author), de Llano Paz, Fernando (author), Calvo-Silvosa, Anxo (author), Pfenninger, Stefan (author), Staffell, Iain (author)Climate change and geopolitical risks call for the rapid transformation of electricity systems worldwide, with Europe at the forefront. Wind and solar are the lowest cost, lowest risk, and cleanest energy sources, but their variability poses integration challenges. Combining both technologies and integrating regions with dissimilar generation...journal article 2024

Ghisolfi, Verônica (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), de Lorena Diniz Chaves, Gisele (author), Mattos Ribeiro, Glaydston (author)Freight transport decarbonization is challenging due to the slow implementation of policies to meet climate goals. This paper analyzes the dynamics of the implementation of freight decarbonization measures. A System Dynamics model was developed and applied to the Brazilian freight system to simulate the use of more sustainable modes and means...journal article 2024

Wang, Kai (author), Hua, Yu (author), Huang, Lianzhong (author), Guo, Xin (author), Liu, Xing (author), Ma, Zhongmin (author), Ma, Ranqi (author), Jiang, X. (author)Optimization of ship energy efficiency is an efficient measure to decrease fuel usage and emissions in the shipping industry. The accurate prediction model of ship energy usage is the basis to achieve optimization of ship energy efficiency. This study investigates the sequential properties of the actual voyage data from a VLOC. On this basis,...journal article 2023

Ghisolfi, V. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), de Lorena Diniz Chaves, Gisele (author), Mattos Ribeiro, Glaydston (author)Freight transport decarbonization is currently an urgent challenge. Decarbonization strategies have a specific time to take effect, and it is essential to consider their time dependence. The system dynamics approach is well suited to represent feedback, lagged responses, and the time dependence of decarbonization strategies. We carried out a...journal article 2022
