ABSTRACT AND INTRODUCTION:

The movement of goods and humans from one place to another place is called transportation. . It also plays a vital role in economic growth and globalization. Due to transportation of any kind of mean plays a key role in economically importance factors such as employment, investment of private and public capital. The passenger airlines and cargo airlines act as an engine of growth for the air transport sector and economic growth.it is directly related to GDP. The transport sector constitutes 10 percent of Pakistan’s GDP and provides 6 percent of the employment in the country. According to economic analysis using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model, a 10 percent increase in Total Factor Productivity (TFP) in transport would increase income of all households.

OBJECTIVES & METHODOLGY:

  • SOLAR PANELS
  • ELECTRIC BUSES

Our main objective is to introduce solar panels on the trains and fully electric buses through which we can generate employment and revenue for the economic growth and it will also improve GDP. India has launched his first solar powered trains in Delhi. It has over 16 solar panels on six coaches which is producing 300 WP. It helps in reducing the emission of carbon dioxide around 2.7 lakh tons a year.

South Australia was the world’s first who introduced solar powered electric bus. The 11 zebra battery having sodium/nickel chloride technology. It has the range of 200 kilometers. This system can generate around 70000 kilowatt hours /year. Already saved the environment from emitting 70 tons of carbon dioxide.

SOLAR PANELS FOR TRAINS:      

India has launched his first solar powered trains in Delhi.

1.2 lakh kilo liter of diesel saving every year

They can be able to pocket Rs 672 crore per year. It helps in reducing the emission of carbon dioxide around 2.7 lakh tons a year.

Six coaches producing 300 Wp. Cost of the panels is 54 lakh.

RESULT AND CONCLUSION:

ADVICE FOR PAKISTAN: If we use 32 solar panels on 12 couches due to which we can produce 600 WP.

Due to which we can save 2 lakh 40 thousand liter fuel / annum.

  • 1344 crore rupees will be pocketed in to Pakistan economy.
  • The cost for 32 solar panels on 12 couches would be approx. 2 coroe 34 lakh.
  • It will help to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide around approx. 5.4 lakh tons/year.

SOLAR ELECTRIC BUSSES:

South Australia was the world’s first who introduced solar powered electric bus. The 11 zebra battery having sodium/nickel chloride technology. It has the range of 200 kilometer. This system can generate around 70000 kilowatt hours /year. The financing was provided by Australian government was approx. half-million dollar. It saves around 14000 liters of diesel. Already saved the environment from emitting 70 tons of carbon dioxide.

RESULT AND CONCLUSION:

ADVICE FOR PAKISTAN: Secondly our second object in this report is to introduce solar powered electric buses in CPEC.

If we introduce 250 buses for CPEC.

  • We can save around 7000 liters of fuel per bus per year.
  • It will help in reducing approx. 35 tons of carbon dioxide.
