International Journal of Global Energy Issues (IJGEI), Vol. 10, No. 2/3/4, 1998

Abstract: Increasing demand for mobility, expansion of the economy, and the realisation of new goals for development have caused tremendous growth in the transport sector of Pakistan. Consequently, transport's share of commercial energy consumption has been increasing and the transport sector has emerged as Pakistan's single largest consumer of petroleum products. Road transport's growth has been more swift and significant than other modes of transport. Opportunities exist to reduce the transport energy demand by switching to energy efficient modes of transport and by employing better management practices. This paper reviews the evolution of transport, patterns of energy demand and supply, and suggests measures to reduce the transport energy demand in Pakistan.
