the Emissions of greenhouse gases from the Swedish road traffic has continued to decline in the last year. The decline was about two percent. However, these processes are far from sufficient for meeting the target of klimatlagen of January, 2018: the emissions from the roadside to be down by 70 per cent between the years 2010 and 2030.
It is according to a new report from the Swedish transport administration, is that the DN has taken a part of it.
by the klimatmålsperioden, the reduction was 22 per cent. Over the next ten years, the reduction rate will have to rise substantially if the objective is to be achieved.
the Emissions by road traffic began to move down slightly at the beginning of the 2000s, but in 2010, after the rate of decline has been speeded up. This is primarily due to two things: more and more biofuels, and more energy-efficient engines. After 2017, which is the primary reason is a different types: of rechargeable cars.
But the climate policies of the last decade has in part been thwarted by another tendency: the rate of Population growth. In line with the fact that Sweden has been more and more population has in traffic, with passenger cars and light commercial vehicles increased by 11 per cent and the traffic of heavy-duty trucks by 7 percent.
with the increase in traffic appears to have leveled off. In 2019, was the road more or less unchanged compared with the year 2018, with the possible exception of the heavy-duty truck traffic, which is a preliminary look seems to have gone up a little bit.
the carbon dioxide emissions of new passenger cars in Sweden has decreased from 153 to 120 grams per kilometer in 2010, the most recent of three programs disappeared between 2018 and 2019. Is thus to a great extent on the EUROPEAN union’s average.
as recently as a decade ago, Sweden was the worst in the class when it came to greenhouse gas emissions per kilometer from new automobiles. In the EUROPEAN union as a whole, the reduction to a halt in the past two to three years. The elbilarnas, Norway, on the other hand, point to the curve steadily rising to a steep decline in 2009.
the Swedish transport administration has been calculated that emissions per kilometer have to be down to 95 grams per kilometre are already 20 and 21 for the target to be met.
and as a bonus-malussystem to trade in a new car. This means that the utsläppsbovar to be punished by the height of the vehicle, while cars with low emissions, now mainly to the payment, will get a bonus.
According to the transport department, it has all worked out reasonably well, when it comes to the bonus, but not when it comes to the ”claims”section. In 2019, were sold, not fewer and fewer cars with high emissions more than in the year before. Therefore, the need of a punitive tax increase, says the agency.
the Diesel-powered cars generally have a smaller carbon footprint than a gasoline powered car, but at the same time, a more harmful particulate matter. The scandal surrounding the dieslarnas release a few years ago, has led to a drop in the level of success.
the Share of diesels among new cars in the last year it was still 33.5 percent), but it was significantly lower than in the peak year of 2012, 66.9 per cent of all new cars sold in Sweden were diesel-powered.
