Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of transportation carbon emission accounting, and specifically relates to a method for calculating carbon emissions in a container multimodal transport network. Background Art
[0002] How to scientifically and systematically quantify carbon emissions from intermodal transport networks has become a current research focus.
[0003] Under the dual pressures of the global energy crisis and carbon neutrality goals, the transportation industry, as a high-carbon emission sector, has garnered widespread attention. Statistics show that transportation emissions account for approximately 24% of global emissions, with road transport contributing approximately 72% of these emissions. Traditional single modes of transportation, such as diesel-dependent road transport, are inefficient and emit high carbon emissions, severely hindering the development of green transportation.
[0004] As a logistics solution that combines multiple modes of transportation, such as road, rail, and inland waterway transport, intermodal transport is considered an important way to promote low-carbon transportation. By optimizing the transportation structure and improving the energy efficiency of transportation tools, intermodal transport can significantly reduce carbon emissions during cargo transportation. However, existing intermodal transport research mainly focuses on carbon emission accounting within a single transportation process, a single chain, or a single hub. For example, the Chinese invention patent application with publication number CN 119397128 A discloses a method for calculating carbon emissions throughout the life cycle of typical port infrastructure. It only reflects the carbon emissions of the port's internal infrastructure, but does not involve the social carbon emissions caused by the port's collection and distribution activities, which are included in the carbon emissions of the intermodal transport network between the port and the hinterland.
[0005] The quantitative assessment of the comprehensive carbon emissions of the port's intermodal transport network is still in the exploratory stage. Existing technologies are unable to quantitatively track the carbon emissions caused by hub freight collection and distribution. There is a lack of a carbon emission accounting system for the intermodal transport network that conforms to the characteristics of my country's transportation structure, resulting in the inability to assess the comprehensive carbon emission reduction benefits of internal and external activities of the intermodal transport hub. Especially under the premise that there are many transportation participants and information is difficult to share, there is a lack of scientific methods to define the carbon emission boundaries of the intermodal transport network of a certain hub or the entire region in order to quantitatively assess the carbon emission level within the network.
[0006] Currently, carbon emission assessment in intermodal transport networks faces the following challenges:
[0007] 1. The accounting of transport carbon emissions is currently focused on carbon emissions accounting at transport nodes or local links along the transport route, and lacks carbon footprint tracking from "door to door". The main reason is that multimodal transport involves many modes of transport, and the transit links of different intermodal transport modes are different. As a result, it is difficult to fully obtain data on carbon emission assessment parameters for different transport modes and different intermodal transport links.
[0008] 2. Imperfect methods for measuring carbon emissions from intermodal transport networks: Most studies focus on the carbon emissions of a single mode of transport or a single intermodal transport route, lacking carbon emissions accounting at the intermodal transport network level. This is primarily because network-level carbon emissions accounting requires network-level freight flow data, which is difficult to obtain comprehensively.
[0009] 3. High model complexity: Multimodal transport involves multiple modes of transportation and different nodes. How to accurately model and ensure data reliability is difficult. Summary of the Invention
[0010] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for calculating carbon emissions in a container multimodal transport network, which solves the problems in the existing technology of complex multimodal transport routes, insufficient granularity of network carbon emissions accounting, inconsistent models, and difficulty in supporting refined carbon management and decision-making.

[0019] Step S1-3: determining a modeling object of a multimodal transport network including nodes, edges, and flows;
[0020] Step S1-4: Collect data required for multimodal transport network modeling, including node attributes, edge attributes, and flow data.
[0021] Step S2 specifically includes the following steps:
[0022] Step S2-1: Construct a hub node identification model based on random forests, using machine learning technology to identify key hub nodes. Node connectivity, economic environment, infrastructure, and freight volume levels are used as regional logistics evaluation indicators to construct feature data for machine learning. With the identified key hub nodes as the core, the cargo collection and distribution network of key nodes is tracked to form a physical network framework for container multimodal transport.
[0023] Step S2-2: Construct a traffic estimation model based on the improved gravity model, select indicators that can reflect the freight attraction between network nodes, use the gravity model to obtain the freight attraction value that can reflect the container volume distribution, and then obtain the traffic quota of each route through the attraction distribution ratio value.
[0024] Step S3 specifically includes the following steps:
[0025] Step S3-1: Clarify the carbon emission accounting boundary and carbon emissions, and calculate the carbon emissions during the transportation and transit processes;

[0051] To more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein may be combined with each other unless there is a conflict. Furthermore, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0052] This method calculates carbon emissions from container intermodal transport networks, including a certain amount of carbon emissions from the intermodal transit and transportation phases of freight activities within intermodal transport networks of varying dimensions. The transit phase encompasses carbon emissions from transshipment operations under different intermodal transport modes, including water-to-water, water-to-road, sea-to-rail, and road-to-rail. Transport phase carbon emissions encompass road, rail, and water transport. Different intermodal transport modes constitute different carbon emission accounting combinations.
[0053] The carbon emission accounting method for container intermodal transport network includes the following steps:
[0054] Step S1: Determine the container intermodal transport network modeling boundary and data set, wherein the modeling boundary includes the spatial scope, time scope, and modeling objects, and the data set includes the node attributes, edge attributes, and flow data required to construct the intermodal transport network model;

[0056] Step S3: Calculate carbon emissions based on the multimodal transport network model in step S2 and in combination with the energy consumption characteristics of different transport modes and different intermodal transit modes.
[0057] Specific embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown,
[0058] In order to illustrate the effectiveness of the method proposed in the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below through a specific embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, a method for calculating carbon emissions in a container multimodal transport network is disclosed, and the specific implementation steps are as follows:
[0059] Step S1: Determine the container multimodal transport network modeling boundary and data set
[0060] Step S1-1: Determine the spatial scope of the multimodal transport network modeling, covering the carbon emissions generated by key facilities such as ports, railway hubs, highway nodes, highways, railways, and inland waterways used in the process of container freight volume movement between hubs and radial nodes.
[0061] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, from the perspective of a single chain of container intermodal transport, the scope of carbon emission accounting for the entire container intermodal transport includes the entire process of connecting different types of hubs with radiation nodes through different modes of transportation, covering the operational process of container transshipment at different nodes, the in-transit transportation process, and the distribution process at the terminal node.
[0062] From the perspective of carbon emissions from the multimodal transport network of a single hub, the multimodal transport carbon emissions based on a single hub include the carbon emissions generated by container freight activities between the hub and multiple interconnected radiating nodes within a regional multimodal transport network over a certain period of time.
[0063] From the perspective of regional intermodal transport network carbon emissions, regional intermodal transport network carbon emissions also include the total carbon emissions generated by key hub networks within the region.
[0064] Step S1-2: Define the time range for network modeling and estimate network traffic based on annual, quarterly, or monthly data.
[0065] Step S1-3: Determine the modeling object of the multimodal transport network, including:
[0066] ① Hub Node: This node is a carrier within the intermodal transport transit service network and serves as the primary collector and sender of intermodal containers within the network. These nodes primarily include road-rail-water transport hubs, rail-water transport hubs, water-water transport hubs, and road-rail and road-water transport hubs. A regional intermodal transport network can include multiple hub nodes. In this embodiment, each hub node has a multimodal transport sub-network centered on the hub itself and connected by container flows.
[0067] ② Hinterland node: As a hinterland node within the hub network, it is a feeding node for the hub node. It only serves the delivery and arrival of local goods and does not have a transit nature.
[0068] ③ Link: Container transport routes connecting intermodal network hubs and hinterland nodes, as well as between hub nodes. Transport routes are composed of routes connecting different transport modes. Connections between hinterland nodes are not covered in this embodiment.
[0069] ④ Transportation mode: Establishing a transportation carrier that connects the paths. The transportation modes of this embodiment include rail transportation, inland waterway transportation centered around inland waterway vessels, and road transportation centered around container trucks.
[0070] 5. Container Traffic: This refers to the volume of container freight between hubs and hinterland nodes, and between hubs and nodes within an intermodal transport network over a given period. This volume is divided into dispatched and arrived volumes, reflecting the demand for intermodal container freight transport between nodes within the intermodal transport network. Container traffic within the intermodal transport network only occurs between hubs and hinterland nodes, and between hubs; traffic between hinterlands is not considered.
[0071] ⑥ Single hub container intermodal transport network: It is composed of the freight traffic relationship between the hub and its hinterland. Containers move on the intermodal transport chain between the intermodal transport hinterland nodes and the hub based on different modes of transport, thus forming a hub-and-spoke container intermodal transport network centered on this hub.
[0072] ⑦ Regional container intermodal transport network: This network is composed of multiple single-hub container intermodal transport networks that fit into the regional intermodal transport network. Each single-hub container intermodal transport network has its own intermodal transport sub-network based on the freight radiation relationship between the hub and hinterland nodes. However, the hub networks are connected through the inter-hub trunk transport network, thus forming a multi-level regional container intermodal transport network that reflects the container freight relations in a specific region.
[0073] Step S1-4: Collect data required for multimodal transport network modeling, including:
[0074] Node attributes: regional economic environment, infrastructure level, freight throughput, etc.
[0075] Edge attributes: transportation mode, transportation cost, transportation time, traffic capacity, etc.
[0076] Traffic data: Estimate freight traffic between nodes based on historical data and machine learning predictions.
[0077] Step S2: Establish a data-driven multimodal transport network model. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a machine learning model is introduced to construct a multidimensional container intermodal transport network node identification model based on random forests, and a multimodal transport physical network consisting of nodes and edges is constructed. Based on the freight and economic dependencies between network nodes, a container intermodal transport network flow estimation model based on an improved gravity model is constructed, and a container intermodal transport logistics network model is constructed.
[0078] Step S2-1, hub node identification model based on random forest: use machine learning technology to identify key hub nodes, such as Figure 5As shown in the figure, node connectivity, economic environment, infrastructure, and freight volume are used as indicators to evaluate regional logistics levels. Feature data for machine learning is constructed to fully explore the characteristics of the intermodal transport network. With identified key hub nodes as the core, the cargo collection and distribution network at key nodes is tracked to form a physical network framework for container intermodal transport.
[0079] Step S2-2, traffic estimation based on the improved gravity model: select indicators that can reflect the freight attraction between network nodes, use the gravity model to obtain the freight attraction value that can reflect the distribution of container volume, and then obtain the traffic quota of each route through the attraction distribution ratio value.

The preliminary comprehensive score value of the node is: the greater the logistics influence and logistics quality of the node, the greater the attractiveness; and the logistics comprehensive distance coefficient comprehensively reflects the transportation cost of different transportation modes between nodes. ,time and distance The three factors work together to negatively impact the attraction index.
