The method traditionally used to evaluate the socioeconomic profitability of investments in transport infrastructure is cost-benefit analysis. However, efficiency benefits are unevenly distributed among the project’s stakeholders and, in practice, transport infrastructure investment entails a diversity of redistributive effects that are actually relevant in the decision-making process. The reality is that investment decisions are made on the basis of some form of explicit or implicit use of multi-criteria analysis encompassing both the results obtained in the cost-benefit analysis and other policy (or simply political) considerations implying some sort of redistribution. This paper proposes a classification of the differential impacts of major transport infrastructure projects (redistribution effects), including territorial, social, environmental and intergenerational impacts. Its aim is to generate awareness of their existence and to facilitate their consideration in the decision-making process so it becomes more transparent. Redistribution effects, which should be considered alongside the socioeconomic and financial assessment, are seldom reflected in a systematic way in the decisions on major infrastructure investments. The proposed classification should facilitate a more consistent incorporation of these effects in the decision-making process.","PeriodicalId":44910,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transport Economics","volume":"41 1","pages":"689-726"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90252579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Acciaro","doi":"10.19272/201806703005","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19272/201806703005","url":null,"abstract":"The shipping sector is likely to go through a fuel transition in the coming decades as a result of the increasing regulation and the commitment of part of the ship-owning community to reduce its environmental impact. If shipping is to limit its greenhouse gas emissions so that global warming is maintained below 2°C as agreed by the IMO in April 2018 and in line with 2015 Paris Agreement, urgent action is needed in terms of environmentally friendly technologies uptake, operational measures and new forms of propulsion based on alternative fuels. While some research has appeared in the last decade on operational and technological measures aimed at reducing emissions for shipping, limited focus has been put on the economic and environmental impacts of a fuel shift. This research aims at analysing the alternative fuel options available for shipping and assess the emission reductions obtainable through a fuel shift. The paper also provides insights on the costs associated with such fuel transition. Through the development of a simulation based on existing information of alternative fuel costs and availability, the paper shows that a maximum of 24% greenhouse gas emission reduction can be achieved by using alternative fuels. Such reduction, however, can be obtained at varying cost levels. An optimal fleet mix is provided for 2050 as guidance for policy makers and the shipping sector.","PeriodicalId":44910,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Transport Economics","volume":"61 1","pages":"439-460"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84212270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In practice, though, decision-making takes into account many other aspects that are more. or less political. When properly defined, they may be introduced in the decision process through multi-criteria analysis. Most important among these aspects are redistributive effects, which are, typically, associated to territorial, social and environmental considerations. There are, however, some important redistribution effects that have never been properly analysed and quantified until now. They are related to the evolution, throughout the projects' lifespan, of the costs and benefits of the project affecting successive (overlapped) generations, and of the financing structure adopted, which determines who the final payers will be: either users, through tolls or tariffs for the use of the project, and/or taxpayers. Relating the actual payment for the investment to the net benefits occurring to the users and citizens in general for each generation, it is possible to ascertain if there is a balanced intergenerational distribution of burdens and benefits over the whole project lifecycle.
