Abstract
Energy Logistics Modeling (ELM) is a tool for assessing the environmental impact of fuel supply systems for vehicle fleets. ELM is developed by applying a logistics approach to fuel supply systems and is heavily influenced by LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) practices. This paper investigates the feasibility to extend the ELM methodology to include the possibility of assessing the environmental impact that a fuel supply system has on a local as well as on regional and global level. A case study is performed in which energy use and airborne emissions are compared for the different fuels used in taxis in Goeteborg, Sweden, area. The fuel supply chains are charted and analyzed from source to end use in taxis.
