dc.descriptionThe base year energy demand was forecasted based on the service demand projection methodology. Based on the historical trend of energy use in transportation sector along with the plans and policies of the Government of Nepal three scenarios, namely business as usual (BAU), sustainable development (SD) and net zero emission (NZE), were prepared. The BAU scenario reflects historical trends in vehicle usage in Nepal and under the scenario overall energy demand has been expected to increase to 92.41 PJ by 2030 and 180.46 PJ by 2050.en_US
dc.description.abstractThe transportation sector in Nepal is heavily reliant on imported fossil fuels, which is costly and polluting. The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is likely to put unnecessary stress on the existing electrical infrastructure. The study focuses on the forecasting the energy and electricity demand in Nepal due to increasing adoption of the electric vehicles. The survey was designed based on the Krejices Morgans sampling method and a total of 555 sample were taken. Based on the outcomes of the survey, the overall energy consumption in transportation sector in 2022 was estimated to be 64.92 PJ out of which diesel accounted for the 39.27 PJ, followed by petrol at 25.28 PJ and electricity consumption at 0.08 PJ.en_US
