Our government announced the Greenhouse Gas Reduction and Management Act (hereafter the “GHG Act”) on July 01 2015 showing its ambitions to combat climate change. In the GHG act, our country’s long-term GHG emission reduction goal shall be to reduce to no more than 50% of 2005 GHG emission level by 2050. According to the act, distinguish 6 sectors are due on emission reduction, including energy, manufacturing, transportation, residential, commercial and agriculture sectors, whereas the emission of the transportation sector was ranked 3th in the 6 sectors in 2015. The energy and manufacturing sectors have already begun emission reduction mechanisms as required by the GHG Act to assist in achieving the reduction goal. This project researches and analyzes greenhouse gas emission reduction strategies for the transportation sector. The key strategies include GHG inventory mechanism for the transportation industry, grants or subsidies mechanisms, and GHG offset projects. This project assisted companies to account for all emission sources and gain knowledge of which procedure could be adjust to reduce emission. We then provide suggestions to simplify inventory process, as well as supporting measures and grants or subsidies mechanisms to facilitate inventory processes. The transportation industry’s GHG offset project feasibility assessment result indicated that two of five reduction measurements should be prioritized, including regional mass transit and electric car/bicycle microscale project.
