dc.description.abstractGreenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector are a major global concern, with the sector being one of the largest contributors. Improving energy efficiency within transportation systems is critical to mitigating these emissions. One promising solution is the introduction of Long Combination Vehicles (LCVs), which enhance logistical efficiency by increasing load-carrying capacity. By reducing the number of vehicles required to transport the same amount of cargo, LCVs contribute to lower emissions and promote more sustainable transportation. This project investigates the energy consumption of a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) used for daily freight transport between Gothenburg Harbor and Viared. The LCV used for this operation is an A-double combination vehicle. The study employs a Forward Simulation modeling approach, accounting for environmental factors, driver behavior, and vehicle performance. It examines the energy cost and efficiency of this daily trip, as well as the vehicle’s long-term operation over the course of a year. The analysis also explores how many trips can be completed and the total energy required for this operation.
