About this pilot project report
The figures above are drawn from our 2024 pilot study, covering 28 companies based in and around Helsingborg and other parts Skåne County.They illustrate how co-workers travelled to and from work in 2024 and the resulting estimated greenhouse gas emissions.
Data for this report was generated via surveys with each participating Company. It is therefore subject to potential errors and inaccuracies. Given that this was a pilot focused on higher level trends, we also did not factor more unique commute patterns, such as carpooling or commutes with incidental travel. Also, general emissions factors for each transport type were chosen as opposed to emissions factors for specific transport types / models of vehicle used (this was necessary to simplify the pilot). The report is not intended to serve as a comprehensive scientific study.
Transport mode share
The donut chart titled “Share of kilometres by transport mode” shows how the total commute distance is split between different transport types. The table below converts those percentages into absolute kilometres (rounded) travelled.
Mode | Distance (km) |
---|---|
Bicycle | 23,522 |
Car Gasoline | 281,813 |
Bus | 71,422 |
Foot | 13,712 |
Car BEV | 128,016 |
Train | 239,989 |
Scooter Electric | 442 |
Car Diesel | 180,903 |
Car PHEV | 96,872 |
Moped Gasoline | 96 |
Bicycle Electric | 1,814 |
Low‑/zero‑emission kilometres
The gauge chart indicates that 39.2 % of all kilometres were travelled using low‑ or zero‑emission modes.
For this analysis, low‑/zero‑emission modes include battery‑electric vehicles (BEV), plug‑in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), cycling, walking, rail and bus services.
We aim to broaden the study across Sweden during 2025. If your organisation would like to participate, please get in touch.
