Rebound effects in mobility.

Description

Rebound effects reduce the effectiveness of measures for environmentally friendly mobility. The expected energy or CO2 savings are not achieved to the full extent, but are reduced by changing usage patterns. Rebound effects are risk factors for energy and climate scenarios that rely primarily on more efficient technologies. However, if they are systematically taken into account and accompanying measures are taken, this reduces the risk of failing to meet environmental and climate targets. This can be achieved if fewer and shorter distances are travelled and economic growth is decoupled from resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This short study was carried out as part of the "Sustainable Mobility Transition" project on behalf of the German Federal Environment Agency.
