| Abstract |
Sustainable transport system refers to desirable combinations of government policies, infrastructure and technologies which minimise environmental impacts and refers to economic and social issues. The aim of this paper was to study the possibilities and challenges for application environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) methods for support sustainable transport. LCA is the most holistic approach of assessing environmental impact and selecting eco-innovation in transport sector. The role of LCA in the development of green transport taking into account challenges related to transport policy, the European Commission's 2050 strategy as well as the circular economy was presented. In European Union countries government actions are aimed at increasing the use of alternative fuels and supporting the development of electromobility. Transport sector needs new and appropriate tools like LCA that will support decision making regarding the development of mobility with alternative and future fuels, technologies and materials etc. in whole vehicle's life cycle. |
